I did look at your earlier post, but while that version built, it 
still didn't produce the RPMs.  After further investigation, I found
that the problem was that RPM_BUILD_ROOT variable being used was not
actually defined, so the build was just building onto the live system.

So even though the RPMs were missing, everything got installed.  I
added the line:

BuildRoot: /var/tmp/gnome-libs-%{PACKAGE_VERSION}-root

to the .spec file and it now builds the packages.  The modified .spec
file is attached, for those who were trying to build these RPMs.

%description
GNOME (GNU Network Object Model Environment) is a user-friendly set of
applications and desktop tools to be used in conjunction with a window
manager for the X Window System.  GNOME is similar in purpose and scope
to CDE and KDE, but GNOME is based completely on Open Source software.
The gnome-libs package includes libraries that are needed by GNOME.

You should install the gnome-libs package if you would like to use the
GNOME desktop environment.  You'll also need to install the gnome-core
package.  If you would like to develop GNOME applications, you'll also
need to install gnome-libs-devel.
