This is a second attempt at fixing the problem first attempted in commit 2df8d99; basically undoing the fact that it was reverted in commit 43cee32f, plus fixing two more issues: the code in configure.ac has to EXACTLY match virnetdevbridge.c with regards to declaring in6 types before using if_bridge.h, and the fact that RHEL 5 has even more conflicts:
In file included from util/virnetdevbridge.c:49: /usr/include/linux/in6.h:47: error: conflicting types for 'in6addr_any' /usr/include/netinet/in.h:206: error: previous declaration of 'in6addr_any' was here /usr/include/linux/in6.h:49: error: conflicting types for 'in6addr_loopback' /usr/include/netinet/in.h:207: error: previous declaration of 'in6addr_loopback' was here
The rest of this commit message borrows from the original try of 2df8d99:
A fresh checkout on a RHEL 6 machine with these packages: kernel-headers-2.6.32-405.el6.x86_64 glibc-2.12-1.128.el6.x86_64 failed to configure with this message: checking for linux/if_bridge.h... no configure: error: You must install kernel-headers in order to compile libvirt with QEMU or LXC support
Digging in config.log, we see that the problem is identical to what we fixed earlier in commit d12c2811:
configure:98831: checking for linux/if_bridge.h configure:98853: gcc -std=gnu99 -c -g -O2 conftest.c >&5 In file included from /usr/include/linux/if_bridge.h:17, from conftest.c:559: /usr/include/linux/in6.h:31: error: redefinition of 'struct in6_addr' /usr/include/linux/in6.h:48: error: redefinition of 'struct sockaddr_in6' /usr/include/linux/in6.h:56: error: redefinition of 'struct ipv6_mreq' configure:98860: $? = 1
I had not hit it earlier because I was using incremental builds, where config.cache had shielded me from the kernel-headers breakage.
* configure.ac (if_bridge.h): Avoid conflicting type definitions. * src/util/virnetdevbridge.c (includes): Also sanitize for RHEL 5.

Good thing I'm waiting for a review - that waiting time was enough for me to test on RHEL 5 and find another issue. v3: also work around RHEL 5 - yet ANOTHER symptom of broken if_bridge.h
