Hi Jan,

I don't specifically enable any testing (that I'm aware of).

The current SPEC file that I'm using is at:
https://git.crc.id.au/netwiz/xen49/src/devel/SPECS/xen49.spec

Essentially it boils down to:
./configure --enable-systemd --prefix=/usr --enable-xsmpolicy %{?enable_ocaml} 
\
  --libdir=%{_libdir} --enable-efi --disable-qemu-traditional \
  --with-extra-qemuU-configure-args="--enable-spice --enable-usb-redir"

(cd xen; make defconfig; sed -i 's/# CONFIG_LIVEPATCH is not set/
CONFIG_LIVEPATCH=y/g' .config; make oldconfig)

export XEN_DOMAIN=xen.crc.id.au
make %{?_smp_mflags} %{?efi_flags} dist

I'll note that 4.6, 4.7, and 4.10 do not fail in this fashion using almost the 
same command set to build.
