No need to introduce a Provides for every single new feature.
rpm_macros_rev high enough has always served that purpose. If you're
concerned that someone will bump macros rev on Ac again without
backporting the mono changes, mark that as a TODO in AC-branch spec.
Then again, if you're modifying it, you might port the change altogether
as well.
