gear misdetects spec version (should use rpmbuild -bE?)
Example:
$ j=viy;i=pine; git clone git://git.altlinux.org/people/$j/packages/$i.git $i.git
$ cd pine.git
$ gear --command env | grep gear_pkg_version
gear_pkg_version=4.64
===
should be 4.64L

1. By design, gear must not use any evals like rpmbuild.
2. If gear cannot guess package version because the spec file is too complex, it is not a gear problem: gear uses these guesed values only to substitute macros while parsing .gear/rules.
