Hm, your example works for me on HEAD.

Usually, the first thing to suspect when you're tracking HEAD and get
bizarre failures is that you have a messed-up build.  Before spending
any time diagnosing more carefully, do "make distclean", reconfigure,
rebuild, reinstall, then see if problem is still there.

(In theory, you can avoid this sort of failure with appropriate use
of --enable-depend, but personally I don't trust that too much.
I find that with ccache + autoconf cache + parallel build, rebuilding
completely is fast enough that it's something I just do routinely
after any git pull.  I'd rather use up my remaining brain cells on
other kinds of problems...)
