In fact, if you like so they are.

%bcond_with means "there exists a switch --with ..., the default is w/o"
%bcond_without means "the default is with, the switch will tunr it off"

For RHEL4 you need

rpmbuild --rebuild --without inotify --with pam_stack --with forcequota2

The default behaviour always models what most users use, e.g. some
newer Fedora Core version. For FC you wouldn't have to add any switch
(and no %bcond macros to /etc/rpm/macros).

No, it's just lack of sane documentation at ATrpms :(
