Fedora has a rather unique MSS scheme (related to its versioning)
and applying the scheme to another MS does not seem very
practical. In practice, a more relevant default value might be
attempted to be set after bsd.linux-rpm.mk.

Sure. There are 29 USE_LINUX_RPM ports, only three set MS,
two of them don't need MSS at all and the third one would rather
MSS was not touched by linux-rpm.mk.

I'm sorry I committed this without prior discussion, but I tried to
make sure the change was not desctructive and as simple as it
gets.
