A comment that I made when I thought no changes to rpc_gss_seccreate(3t)
would be needed.... But you found and fixed a bug there.

I think this series truly needs to check the libtirpc version.
Otherwise the build will complete successfully, gssd will use
rpc_gss_seccreate(), but it will be broken.

Grep for PKG_CHECK_MODULES in the other files in aclocal/ and you
should find a pattern to use.

IME distros don't work that way.
