I'm trying to compile libvirt 0.6.0 on Gentoo, but keep
encountering
the following error:
network_driver.c:72: error: expected specifier-qualifier-list before 'brControl'

Every error following the first one refers to networkConfigDir,
networkAutostartDir, or logDir, all listed after brControl in the
definition of network_driver.
What looks to me like the same error has been reported against 0.5.1
here (I haven't tried it myself):

My configuration options:

If other info would help resolve this I'd be happy to try and provide it.
You're compiling with neither LXC nor QEMU, and that turns off WITH_BRIDGE,
yet parts of network_driver.c assume bridge-related functions are defined.
If really you want neither LXC nor QEMU, then maybe you also want
--without-network?
I've confirmed that when configured with that additional option
it does build.
If being able to build --without-lxc --without-qemu --with-network
is important, (even if just to forestall bug reports like this one ;-)
then we'll make it work.
