At build time?  Then do something like:

  %define is_fedora %(test -f /etc/fedora-release && echo 1 || echo 0)
  %define distrorel %(rpm -qf --qf '%{version}' /etc/redhat-release)

and then you can use something like:

  %if ! %is_fedora
  %if %distrorel == 3
  # we're in RHEL3
  %endif
  %endif

etc...
