Some first remarks & nitpicks:

- IMO, URL should be http://sourceforge.net/projects/l2tpd 
- Group tag should be "System Environment/Daemons" (as have ppp, openswan,
wvdial and other similar stuff).
- AFAIK l2tp can be useful without IPSec too. If it is true, remove "Requires:
openswan"
- As unix98pty is a default for FC2+, and spec file should be more
Fedora-oriented rather than generic, get rid of unneeded patches and macros here.
- Source3 (RPM.README) seems to be unuseful (to be included into %doc for "end"
users)
- BUGS file in %doc seems to be unuseful too (it is mostly for l2tpd developers).
- As Patch0 is not used at all, get rid of it.
- According to
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/ScriptletSnippets#head-55b46ef483e6a08c24a8fc3b0b7e2ef7bfb84efd
, don't run "chkconfig ... on" on install.
  Also remove "comment + exit 0;" at the ends of the scripts, it looks a little
bit ugly.
- Change "try-restart" to "condrestart" in spec and l2tpd.init file.
- I would prefer to not activate l2tpd service by default (i.e., change "2345 80
30" to "- 80 30" in l2tpd.init file). Don't use extra spaces in the appropriate
line, rpmlint worries about it.
- remove the last paragraph from %description (all rpm history should be in the
%changelog section).

  Consider an opportunity of replacement of the current source tarball + a lot
of patches to some current CVS snapshot (it seems that several patches are
already commited upstream). Of course, if it is stable enough... :)
