Flags for building an rpm

A colleague built a wine rpm a while ago.  Here is the size and date:

9922591 Apr 29 14:32 wine-20040408-1muse.athlon.rpm

If I look on the winehq site I see similar sizes, only slightly larger:

wine-20040716-1rh8winehq.athlon.rpm 11662876

Unfortunately, my colleague is incommunicado for the next couple of 
weeks, and I cannot ask him how he built the rpm.  I added a patch to 
fix the problem I reported recently in menu.c.  Then, I built the rpm 
with the command:

# rpmbuild -ba --platform athlon wine-20040408-2muse.spec

Here is what I get:

85910178 Jul 29 21:25 wine-20040408-2muse.athlon.rpm

This is significantly larger.  I looked at the contents and the problem 
seems to be mainly in /usr/lib/  All files are significantly larger.

What flags am I missing when I am building the rpm?
