the problem with this is relating a svn revision to a released distro
also we have an svn epoch, when the package was first imported.

i just found:
% svn annotate bacula.spec
    927       root # fix conditional pam config file
    927       root %if %{mdkversion} < 200610
    927       root bzcat %{SOURCE6} > bacula.pam
    927       root %else
    927       root bzcat %{SOURCE7} > bacula.pam
    927       root %endif

i think this could go.

(btw, bacula from 2010.1 builds correctly on 2006.0 if you disable the
qt gui components)
