Oh, that's a historical leftover (and not the only one) in the INSTALL
doc. Having a "reference spec" in upstream tarball doesn't make much sense
as it's bound to be very distro specific so it was removed.
If you dont want to start from scratch, just grab some distro's rpm.spec
for a starting point.
