What are the steps to reproduce?

./autogen.sh && ./configue && make?

Have you tried make distclean?

Those are the steps I just performed to try and update my node. However I previously compiled (few months back) with a set of compilation flags that I do not have anymore.

Have you tried make distclean?

This did the trick thanks!

PS. Apologies for filing this as an Github issue (and somehow adding the bug label?). Didn't know the best place to ask for specific compile errors such as the one I got.

NP, but FWIW: the bitcoin stack exchange is the best place for support questions.
