I don't know.
I just run

rpmbuild --sign -ba foo.spec

and I get a signed src.rpm and signed rpm that make yum happy.

Here is my GPG part of my ~/.rpmmacros

# GPG
%_signature gpg
%_gpg_path /home/buildmaster/.gnupg
%_gpg_name Michael A. Peters (buildmaster) <buildmaster at mpeters.us>
%_gpgbin /usr/bin/gpg

Specifying --sign and setting up my .rpmmacros to look like that "just  
works"
