Nice, that has fixed it on my system. Thanks for making this work!

In the meantime, I have stumbled upon another build issue. Cosmetic, as
it may seem, I just wanted to let you know ...

It seems to me that a few artifacts may be built only during the make
install rather than the make step. There are several files owned by root
in the build tree, which I did not expect. Here is the full sequence in
order to reproduce this issue:

$ git clone https://github.com/brltty/brltty.git
$ cd brltty
$ ./autogen
$ ./configure --prefix=/usr/ --localstatedir=/var --sysconfdir=/etc \
    --with-writable-directory=/run/brltty --disable-stripping
$ make
$ sudo make install
$ find . -user root
