Replying to myself for the sake of archiving the information...... I
found the link to this BZ by following BZ#1199983, which is mentioned in
the 'Technical Notes' for 6.7 (specifically 7.178. redhat-rpm-config),
and so the addition of redhat-rpm-config to the requirements for
rpm-build is documented in the upstream release notes.
