That patch essentially negates the point of the test, which is that getopt should be visible from unistd.h. I'd rather fix the problem than nuke the test.
Could you explain what the Gnulib problem is here? I can't really see it in your email. A self-contained example would help.
For what it's worth, I could not reproduce the problem on Fedora 26 by doing this in Gnulib (this tells 'configure' to use Gnulib-supplied getopt.h and getopt.c):
Fedora 26 only has glibc 2.25 - you need to have Fedora rawhide to get the broken behaviour, as that has glibc 2.26.90
./gnulib-tool --create-testdir --dir foo getopt-posix cd foo ./configure gl_cv_func_getopt_posix=no ac_cv_header_getopt_h=no make make check
