Autoconf tests INTENTIONALLY try to probe for broken systems, in order to work around brokenness, so a segfaulting conftest during ./configure just says that things are probing as expected. About the only thing that could be done to avoid a segfault during ./configure is fixing the underlying broken system that the probe was detecting in the first place, but that's more likely to be a glibc or kernel fix, not a libvirt fix.
