What distribution are you building on?  I had a frustrating enough
time getting it to build on Ubuntu and Debian systems a while back
(not xfstests' fault; sometimes the distro doesn't ship all of the
header files or have recent enough libraries) that I created
xfstests-bld which does a hermetic build of xfstests.  That way, it
doesn't depend on anything getting shipped by the distribution.

It's also useful if you are running in a very restrictive run-time
environment, such as what you might find in a highly opimized cloud
data center, and you can't depend on any shared libraries, etc.  Or if
you need to do a build for an embedded platform where again, you can't
depend on anything getting provided by the distribution.

Anyway, give it a try and see if it helps,

	git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/fs/ext2/xfstests-bld.git

If you have any problems, let me know!
