Hmm.  I suspect either we're short a BuildRequire or two, or you missed
something that's considered part of the standard minimum build
environment.  The "exceptions" list on this page shows what Red Hat
considers the core set of packages that needn't be BuildRequire'd:

However, none of those look particularly likely to result in the
failure you're seeing here :-(.  Could you send along the config.log
output?
