I don't understand this. 

AFAICT, 9.11 is svn revision 26017 on xbmc.org's
9.11_Camelot branch 
(https://xbmc.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/xbmc/branches/9.11_Camelot)

Well, I've seen abrt popping up when xbmc went down. Whether this is
usable/useful is a different question. Anyway, so far, I've never experienced
abrt doing anything useful anywhere - not even with original Fedora
bugzilla.redhat.com hosted Fedora packages.

If you really want to keep the wrapper, then 
* you'd have to introduce at least "Require: gdb" (A silly idea, IMO) and a
"Requires: redhat-lsb" (Pulls in a long series of dependencies) 
or to check for presence of them at runtime.
* fix the script into a location which is more likely to be writeable (e.g.
$(HOME)) than $(pwd)

Finally, I just noticed that xbmc.sh still accesses /usr/share/xbmc/xbmc.bin.
