This is for BJ mostly:

$ mock -r epel-4-x86_64 holland-1.0.5-1.fc14.src.rpm
...

error: /builddir/build/SPECS/holland.spec:1: parseExpressionBoolean returns -1


This is, of course, due to the following conditional expression not
working in older versions:

%if !(0%{?fedora} > 12 || 0%{?rhel} > 5)
%{!?python_sitelib: %global python_sitelib %(%{__python} -c "from
distutils.sysconfig import get_python_lib; print(get_python_lib())")}
%{!?python_sitearch: %global python_sitearch %(%{__python} -c "from
distutils.sysconfig import get_python_lib; print(get_python_lib(1))")}
%endif

The conditional isn't strictly required for functionality, but I
understand that it is standard practice.

We still support rhel4, so I'd like this to work from at least our
build_rpms script.  What's the best way to work around this?
