If building libvirt against Ubuntu precise, the librbd.h is lacking many functions that libvirt expects. We have no version check, so we were enabling RBD even though it cannot compile. This configure check uses existance of 'rbd_get_features' as an identifier for the min required version. Signed-off-by: Daniel P.
