[Rpm-maint] [rpm-software-management/rpm] RFC: Removing unneeded internal macros (such as %__ranlib) (#1211)

[Igor Raits]

Also we probably should rethink  `%_(build|host|target)_*` macro. They are not really used by RPM for anything, rpmPlatform() has its own auto-detection anyway. I guess they were meant for RPM to support cross-compilation, but this never happened from what I know.

Probably best would be to get rid of old cruft and when cross-compilation is the thing for RPM - do it properly?
