In bug 165265 we just discovered that this does not hold for Docdir. 
Instead of:

Docdir:        bar

Defining %{docdir} to "bar" it defines %{_docdir} to "bar". (Or this 
latter definition is some other side-effect.) Or I have misunderstood 
something very basic here... Is the behaviour of RPM not consistent in 
this regard?
