Hello Mike and Christophe,

How about detecting at compile time whether the rbd header files are 
available? That approach avoids that we have to introduce a configure 
script and also avoids that the user has to enable rbd support 
explicitly. In e.g. the fio makefile there are several tests to check 
which libraries are available and can be used during the fio build.

Bart.
