I ran autogen.sh, but then make was always failing like this:
$ make
cfg.mk:141: *** gnulib update required; run ./autogen.sh first. Stop.
Here's the fix:

Subject: [PATCH libguestfs] build: make autogen.sh update .git-module-status, as it should
* autogen.sh: Without this, "make" would always say "gnulib update
required; run ./autogen.sh first", even after you'd run autogen.sh
successfully.
# Ensure that whenever we pull in a gnulib update or otherwise change to a
# different version (i.e., when switching branches), we also rerun ./bootstrap.
curr_status=.git-module-status
-t=$(git submodule status)
+t=$(git submodule status|sed 's/.//;s/ .*//')
if test "$t" = "$(cat $curr_status 2>/dev/null)"; then
: # good, it's up to date
else
