In trying to compile an old version of libvirt (to see if I can get some old patches up to date, see https://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2014-March/msg00106.html), I get the error:
getopt.h:85:29: fatal error: getopt-pfx-core.h: No such file or directory
when I run make (after running ./autogen.sh).
This is on libvirt commit aa50a5c.
In searching for this error ("fatal error: getopt-pfx-core.h: No such file or directory") I find very few results, but it does not seem specific to libvirt, which makes sense since the error seems to be something with getopt.

This question appears to be off-topic. The users who voted to close gave this specific reason:
- "Questions describing a problem that can't be reproduced and seemingly went away on its own (or went away when a typo was fixed) are off-topic as they are unlikely to help future readers." – Jeff Schaller, phk, Michael Homer, G-Man, sebasth

Make sure that you are building with a clean tree.
In this case, I had files from a build of a much newer commit.
Running:
(warning, this deletes stuff in the working tree that is not in git!)
git reset --hard HEAD
git clean -fdx
git clean -fdX
and then doing the build again worked.
