I've pushed a few commits which fix various aspects of the build and
may improve things for you:

commit d5ce9c91469d3d384aa32735453a1f8a20d4ec25

    tests: Add TESTS_ENVIRONMENT in a couple of makefiles.
    
    We were accidentally testing the installed virt-v2v rather than the
    locally built one.

    m4: Relax dependency on libguestfs versions.
    
    1.41 was only required to run a single test, but in all other respects
    1.40 works fine.  Relax the dependency and fix the test instead.
    
    Thanks: Nir Soffer.

    m4: Remove daemon checks and dependency on hivex.
    
    Now that we've split out virt-v2v, there's no daemon, and hivex is not
    required (since it is only used through the guestfs API).

    m4: Check that ocaml 'guestfs' module is available.
    
    It is required to compile virt-v2v after we split out libguestfs and
    virt-v2v.
    
    Thanks: Nir Soffer.
