I've read MaximumRPM from:

Which helped me a great deal.
I'll start a new thread regarding using RPM to build packages.
You'll find MaximumRPM will have taught you a whole lot you didn't need to know (not that this is a bad thing). In this case, it really should have been a case of:
yum install lame wget src.rpm rpmbuild --rebuild src.rpm rpm -Uvh --force shiny-new-binary.rpm
No twiddling with the spec file was required, as it already auto-detected the presence of lame.
