Thanks for the pointer.

Unfortunately this new RHEL package is not yet in current Vagrant images (1707.01) nor available in copr making builds that depend on those Autoconf macros fail.


This is one of those unfortunate things that happens when using CentOS; major releases trail RHEL and sometimes when things make the shift from EPEL to RHEL proper, CentOS users end up without some packages available for a while. We're dealing with the same issue with the `http-parser` package, which not only got moved from EPEL to RHEL, but also downgraded the NVR in the process (so we can't just leave the EPEL package in the repo  until CentOS catches up).
