This looks like a bug actually.  I've not seen it happen here however.

virt-df is the only program that requires this symbol, so if you like
you can just bypass that subdirectory and continue the build.  Edit
'Makefile.am' and change:

  # virt-tools in C.
- SUBDIRS += align cat df edit format inspector rescue
+ SUBDIRS += align cat edit format inspector rescue
