Fedora 26 only has glibc 2.25 - you need to have Fedora rawhide to get
the broken behaviour, as that has glibc 2.26.90

As Daniel said at least glibc 2.26 as in Fedora rawhide or Ubuntu Artful.
But thanks for these commands that way I could reproduce without needing any of the libvirt build env.
Here [1] a log of your commands on such a system showing the issue.
I added a gdb to show the assert and an LD_DEBUG so you can see that getopt is not taken from gnulib as the test assumes when verifying behavior.
