Most of this looks fine to me...

...but sys/auxv.h inclusion cannot be unconditional, it breaks 
compilation on older glibc versions and non-Linux systems. The AT_* 
macros are only used on Linux, and come from elf.h which is explicitly 
included, and rpm parses /proc/auxv if glibc doesn't support getauxval() 
so thats not required either.

All that rationale behind current situation doesn't obviously help 
getting the required HWCAP_* macros for arm and anything else that might 
need them though. Guess we could separately check for sys/auxv.h 
presence and always include if there, and/or just include definitions of 
the HWCAP* bits we need. Or better ideas welcome...

Thanks for working on this, its about time we get the arm bits merged 
upstream. BTW rpm-maint list would be the better place for discussing 
patches, rpm-list is more usage-oriented.
