I have essentially no idea what this package does, but I went ahead and built it
out of curiosity.  I must say that given the description above, especially the
"certainly not ready" part, I'd be uncomfortable about installing this even if a
FAQ told me to.  Could that bit perhaps be removed?  Maybe take the "I think
it's already somewhat usable" bit out as well, since "yum info" probably doesn't
think anything about the packages usability.

I don't see anything else in the distro that uses /var/ax25.  Where is this
standard for ax25 applications?  Does this standard somehow trump the FHS? 
Seems to me that /var/lib/ax25 is more appropriate.

I wouldn't worry about working around obviously bogus rpmlint complaints. 
rpmlint isn't necessarily the authority which must be quieted, and in the case
of your configure script it should just be ignored (although what you've done
works too).
