What I see is that the hacks that you apply to configure are apparently
not working:

checking command to parse /usr/bin/nm -B output from gcc object...
./configure: line 7304:  -e 's/^T .* \(.*\)$/extern int \1();/p' -e
's/^[ABCDGIRSTW][ABCDGIRSTW]* .* \(.*\)$/extern char \1;/p': No such file
or directory
I think that's redhat-rpm-config.  See %_fix_broken_configure_for_lto
in /usr/lib/rpm/redhat/macros.  I see the same output from every
package I maintain that uses autoconf-generated configure scripts.
So somebody needs to fix redhat-rpm-config then. It's funny when something
called "fix_broken_configure" produces… a broken configure. ;-)
That macro looks very hairy.
They are 100% totally insane.  I suspect we've got a quoting issue that needs to be fixed.


At some point we should just require autoreconf.  I think Debian have
been advising (not requiring) that for a while:

https://wiki.debian.org/Autoreconf
That would eliminate the need for those crazy macros.  The problem is many packages have configury bits that are ancient and can't be rebuilt with modern autotools.
