[New-bugs-announce] [issue41105] Add some extra content check for some who has been deprecated by glibc

[Manjusaka]

New submission from Manjusaka <lizheao940510 at gmail.com>:

Hello everyone

When I try to compile the code from the master branch on my Manjaro, one of the Linux system based on the Arch and based on the glibc-2.31 && gcc-10.1.0 . the compiler show me that the fcntl module has been failed to be compiled

Here's the message 

/home/manjusaka/Documents/project/cpython/Modules/fcntlmodule.c:618:33: error: ‘I_PUSH’ undeclared (first use in this function)
  618 |     if (PyModule_AddIntMacro(m, I_PUSH)) return -1;

I have figured out the reason because the stropts.h has been deprecated since the glic-2.30, but some of the distribution of Linux keep an empty file on the /usr/include, so the configure process will recognize stropts.h is existed and open HAVE_STROPTS_H flag.

So should we add an extra content check in the configure process to avoid the empty file problem?
