That is correct.

If the libraries/files that are produced are separate when using that 
option, you can split them out as a separate rpm ... and maybe you can 
continue to use the base RPMS from centos and keep yours separately.

If it modifies the (or compiles differently) the files in existing 
packages, then yes you will have to track and rebuild them every time.
