Yes, we were primarily focusing on runtime dependencies now so that Rawhide
isn't broken when the side-tag is pushed, however any API incompatibility in
the packages that BuildRequire rpm-devel would just be pushed back to the
earliest moment they're rebuilt in Rawhide by their maintainers.

So I also think that ideally we should try rebuilding those ourselves to
identify potential issues while 4.19 is not yet in Rawhide.

I'll talk to my team on Monday, we'll perhaps do just that.  A quick check with

    dnf repoquery --release=rawhide --disablerepo="*" --enablerepo="*-source" \
                  --arch=src --whatrequires rpm-devel

shows a couple of additional packages that weren't covered in this thread so
far:

    fastfetch
    gcc
    gdb
    grub2
    grubby
    javapackages-bootstrap
    ocaml-dose3
    sblim-cmpi-rpm
    xmvn-generator
