If you are using --disabling-vflib do you still need VFlib2-devel as a
buildrequires?
It appears that the binary you built doesn't end up requiring VFlib2.
Your srpm rpm rebuilds in mock for fc4 but because of the VFlib2-devel
requirement doesn't complete correctly for development under mock. 
VFlib2 is no longer available in core-development, so  you'd need to
prepare different specs or a conditional to handle both extras-fc4 
and extras-development.  If you can remove that VFlib2-devel
completely that  would probably be the least complicated solution.

the run of rpmlint on my mock built rpm contains a few items covered in 
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/PackagingGuidelines

  W: MagicPoint summary-ended-with-dot X based presentation software. 
easy fix just remove that period.

  E: MagicPoint obsolete-not-provided mgp
  E: MagicPoint obsolete-not-provided magicpoint
You need to add a Provides for mgp and magicpoint

  W: MagicPoint incoherent-version-in-changelog 1.11b-1 1.11b-6
Make sure you add a changelog entry for each release bump you do.
