Having the 1st and 4th lines written the way they are seems dangerous.
Perhaps the 3rd and 4th linse should onlt do the substitution if the
variables are empty.

Actually looking at the spec file, I have every reason to beleive that
the post-install part of the athean-afs package is adding these. If
not that is a bug. Either way if the SIPB post-install is going to
add them, it needs to make sure to do so only if they aren't already
in the file.
