You unpack the source files into specific directories, ready for building the package. In RedHat the default locations are: /usr/src/redhat/SPECS for the codeweavers-wine.spec file /usr/src/redhat/SOURCES for the source tar balls and patches I guess this will be stored under the /compat/linux/ directories under FreeBSD. Is this not happening? Adding more '-v's to rpm should give you more information.
