This is not a _major_ bug. kernel-$flavor.spec use NoSource: to avoid
duplicating the kernel and patches tarballs all over. The spec file expects
that kernel-source.src.rpm is installed and the files are in %_sourcedir. If
you make the %_sourcedir definition dependent on the package name then it
fails, this is not about using or not using standard macros but about sharing
sources among packages. If you can come up with a way that works for your use
case and allows to use NoSource:, I'll gladly use it, otherwise I'm affraid it
has to stay as is and you'll need to adapt your build scripts (e.g. rpmbuild
-ba --define '_sourcedir %_topdir/SOURCES/kernel-%version' for all
kernel-*.spec).
