Thanks; looking through that, I see:

configure:31404: checking for struct random_data
configure:31404: cc -std=gnu99 -c -O2 -pipe -fno-strict-aliasing
-D_THREAD_SAFE -D_THREAD_SAFE conftest.c >&5
conftest.c: In function 'main':
conftest.c:346: error: invalid application of 'sizeof' to incomplete
type 'struct random_data'
...

| #include <stdlib.h>
|       #if HAVE_RANDOM_H
|       # include <random.h>
|       #endif
|
|
| int
| main ()
| {
| if (sizeof (struct random_data))

So, what has to be included prior to <stdlib.h> for the forward
declaration of struct random_data in that header to no longer be an
incomplete type?  Can you grep your system headers and find what all
mentions struct random_data?


In looking through our 8.4 Branch, here are the results of digging the tree:

crypto/openssh/pkcs11.h:                       unsigned char *random_data,
crypto/heimdal/lib/hx509/ref/pkcs11.h:                 unsigned char *random_data,
crypto/heimdal/lib/hx509/hxtool.c:random_data(void *opt, int argc, char **argv)
sys/netinet/sctp_output.c:              SCTP_READ_RANDOM(randp->random_data, random_len);
sys/netinet/sctp_header.h:      uint8_t random_data[];

Per another developer at FreeBSD, it seems to be a bug in 8.x branch and picking up something it shouldn't and was "fixed" by adding this to the configure environment:
ac_cv_type_struct_random_data=""

http://redports.org/~jgh/20130930154500-61365-148605/libvirt-1.1.2.log

However the build still fails, but looks to be a more standard failure. Any more ideas on this?
