Your rpmmacros file may not be the only thing affecting it. This is why it was recommended that you compare the output. If you're lazy, learn to use diff.
Ah, of course - the confrontational approach. I love it!
Some on the list are more so than others.
You have to make the rpmmacros file from scratch since it doesn't exist by default. This begs the question: Why are you including things if you have no idea what they are? When you added the lines you have, did you not check to make sure that the files actually exist?
Leftovers from 4.4.
However, I am chastised - I will pore through that and see what comes up, if removing everything except the HOME line in the file does not work (the true "lazy" approach :-). On the other hand, again with audacity I ask, would it not have been simpler just to say, as Karanbir did, "it needs to contain nothing?"
