Fedora rawhide builds of libvirt.git at commit d53fa838^ failed due to the new glibc 2.25 deprecation warning for use of major() from just <sys/types.h>; I also found that the same warning is provoked by gnulib's mountlist module. Libvirt commit d53fa838 was a temporary hack to work around the problem, and I will be reverting that and updating to newer gnulib once this goes in. I've tested that libvirt on Fedora rawhide with d53fa838 reverted and gnulib updated to this commit was once again able to build. Comments welcome, particularly for my choice of wording in documentation changes. The final push will differ slightly from this, especially if the autoconf patch going in first changes slightly due to review there, but this should give a good idea of the fix.
