I'm building a package (rasmol, if you must know) from an srpm. It's an
FC20 pkg, nothing older, but the software itself hasn't changed. So... I
try the build, and it fails, telling me:
gcc: %__global_ldflags: No such file or directory
make: *** [rasmol] Error 1
Now, this isn't a brand-new package, so I'm puzzled by the error. Is
there
supposed to be something I need to add to the rpmbuild command line,
or...?
Clues for the poor.

The %__global_ldflags macro was introduced in RHEL7. It's provided by redhat-rpm-config. If you're attempting to build on an older version then you'll need to fix that.

On CentOS 6, you do get the error described. Ned is correct with it requiring a flag change. Once lines 107 and 116 of the spec are changed to have the last portion of the lines as: EXTRA_LIBRARIES="%{?__global_ldflags}" the package builds fine.
