My code makes the change to configure.in also, so that when it's
reautotooled it will work too.  Your #sourcemage-dump output indicates that
it simply re-ran autoconf, but you didn't paste the rest of the break.

I suspect you updated autoconf to a version those version of glibc doesn't 
like.

Perhaps paste the rest of the error and some build system tool versions...

...so we have something to go on. ;)
