I got the source code from git://git.annexia.org/git/libguestfs.git 
<http://git.annexia.org/?p=libguestfs.git;a=summary>, and tried to 
compile libguestfs within the directory.

For the host:
# rpm -qa | grep febootstrap
febootstrap-2.6-1.fc12.noarch

# cat /etc/redhat-release
Fedora release 12 (Constantine)

# uname -a
Linux yuzhang 2.6.32.11-99.fc12.x86_64 #1 SMP Mon Apr 5 19:59:38 UTC 
2010 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

And I use the following command before make:
# ./autogen.sh 
--with-mirror=http://fileshare.englab.nay.redhat.com/redhat/fedora/linux/releases/12/x86_64/os 
--with-updates=http://download.englab.nay.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/updates/12/x86_64/ 
--with-repo=fedora-12

Problem still exists.
