Not necessarily.

The way i686-pc-mingw32-* wrapper scripts are currently done is that they
internally evaluate the matching rpm macro. For example,
i686-pc-mingw32-pkg-config runs 'rpm --eval %{_mingw32_pkg_config}'.

We need the unset command in the rpm macro, but it's not needed for the wrapper
script. In fact, it's not only unneeded but might cause problems when configure
scripts call <host-triplet>-pkg-config.

I would say another solution is rewriting i686-pc-mingw32-pkg-config script so
it wouldn't call rpm --eval internally. With that we'd be able to get rid of
the 'unset' command in the script, but keep it in the rpm macro.
