Since the .spec file for the Redhat-ish RPM builds has not been updated
for this release, "rpmbuild -ta freeside-1.7.3rc1.tar.gz" won't work.
The .spec file still assumes the tarball is freeside-1.7.tar.gz.  (The
version number is hard-coded into the .spec file and has to be updated
when a release is made.)

It does work if you use the command line override that the .spec file is
written to support (for CVS builds), i.e:

     rpmbuild --define='version 1.7.3rc1' -ta freeside-1.7.3rc1.tar.gz

but that's sub-optimal.

I'm looking at ways of fixing it for rc2.  (It seems pointless 
committing a fix for rc1.)
