+It's pretty pathetic that you need a different source RPM for each Red
+Hat variant, but that seems to be the way of things.  So for each
+modules, I unpacked it to get hold of the .spec file that needs
+editing, and the source tarball that it builds, as follows:
+       rpm2cpio perl-MARC-Record-2.0.2-1mdv2010.1.src.rpm | cpio -i
+And modified the extracted .spec file as necessary.  The modified
+.spec files are part of this git archive; the tarballs are not.
+
+The final binary packages, build for centos5, are in the "centos5"
+directory.
