The previous patch pulled in a newer version of stat-time.h from

a feature of newer gcc. But we still aim to compile on RHEL 6.3,
with gcc 4.4.6 (not to mention even older devel platforms like
RHEL 5), which fails to build thanks to our development -Werror.

If you change this line, does it help?

Hi Eric,
I assume this was intended to suppress errors like this here:
CC libvirt_driver_storage_la-storage_backend.lo
cc1: warnings being treated as errors
In file included from ../../src/storage/storage_backend.c:59:
../../gnulib/lib/stat-time.h:55: error: no previous prototype for
'get_stat_atime_ns' [-Wmissing-prototypes]
Yep. And I need to mention that in my commit message.
unfortunately, even applying the patch above and rerunning bootstrap,
configure, make didn't help and I'm still getting the errors ... the
interesting thing is that pragma push seems to work...
I am compiling on RHEL6.2, gcc 4.4.6
I'm still investigating why it worked for me. I may have had a stale
config.cache interfering with what I posted vs. what I tested earlier.
Look for a v2 soon.
I changed to AC_CACHE_CHECK and added -Werror but
for some reason the CFLAGS won't get passed to the compilation ...
