Well, I had a long answer on my mind, but let's put it short,
(a) killing the duplication would be nice but my systems
    works by making a cvs snapshot with rpmbuild -ta *.tar.
    How to get the gnu macros into the snapshot tar then...
(b) There are macros in the sfnet branch that are purely
    experimental, I was not aware of how the gnu archive
    does mark experimentals anyway.
(c) I am submitting macros to savannah already, those
    experimentals can go there when the processing is
    going to be defined to an acceptable degree.
We are currently in the making of archive unification, if
the gnu ac-archive build files are in place I can start
dropping the sfnet build and sync processing - in that order.
