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.
