Whenever 1.8 is released, that will definitely have the change; I haven't
updated the 1.7 branch to use a newer configure however, since this is a
small issue with an easy workaround.  Though watching what effect the newer
configure for 1.8 has for people, it could be updated on 1.7 as well if
there are no issues with it.
