You somehow broke something as it work for me on gcc-4.4 or gcc-4.1.2
Nota : the content of the spec file differ from the string displayed by '%' between not and used but that should not matter.
 
[root@...vista tmp]# gcc -specs=spec -DABC -E -c -
gcc: ABC is used!
[root@...vista tmp]# gcc -specs=spec -E -c -
gcc: ABC is not used!
[root@...vista tmp]# gcc --version
gcc (GCC) 4.1.2 20080704 (Red Hat 4.1.2-54)
