[CentOS-devel] [PATCH] Added script for extracting what I think is the dist tag

I wrote a script for extracting the dist macro value a while back. One of
the odd cases is when rpms have what /looks like/ a dist tag in the release
field, but is in fact a hard coded part of the release. I've seen some
pretty strange things.

At any rate, I figured out a way to extract the true dist tag, given the
spec and the nvr. I've applied similar changes here for review.
