Hi, i thought this looked familiar. I looked into it from cheusov@'s latest
bulk build on Ubuntu. It's failing on my CentOS 7 environment as well. Seems
no one had reported it, so I filed:

https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=87243

While the configure arguments you suggested will allow the build to continue,
they don't fix the underlying issue which is present on many systems. How
about we wait for a response and possible fix from upstream? If that doesn't
happen before the Q4 freeze is over, i'll add those CONFIGURE_ARGS so the
package will be available for Q4 on Linux. Sound OK?
