And, sadly, this mechanism is again a piece of crap, and another thing that was
solved 20 years ago in PLD.

rpm5 supports multiple lines with multiple regexps each. rpmfcExpandRegexps.

rpm.org rpm can only do a single regexp in a single macro, so no things
like we have:

%__noautoreq		%(sed -e s'/#.*//' /etc/rpm/noautoreq) \
	%{?_noautoreq: %{_noautoreq}} \
	%{?_noautoreq_java: %{__noauto_regexp_helper -p java %{_noautoreq_java}}} \
	%{?_noautoreq_mono: %{__noauto_regexp_helper -p mono %{_noautoreq_mono}}} \
	%{?_noautoreq_pear: %{__noauto_regexp_helper -p pear %{_noautoreq_pear}}} \
	%{?_noautoreq_perl: %{__noauto_regexp_helper -p perl %{_noautoreq_perl}}} \
	%{?_noautoreq_pyegg: %{__noauto_regexp_helper -p pythonegg %{_noautoreq_pyegg}}} \
	%{?_noautoreq_py3egg: %{__noauto_regexp_helper -p python3egg %{_noautoreq_py3egg}}} \

or, in a spec file

%define _noautoreq libFoo.so.1 libBar.so.1

I'll see if I can fix this...
