Specifying a fixed uid for RedHat RPM PrivSep user

I'm a little unconfortable with the way the privsep user is created in
the RedHat spec files.  In particular the way a fixed UID is specified. 

Now it looks (from a glance at the apache/bind spec file) that it is
'the way it is done' - but is there a register of these numbers
somewhere?
