checking for utf8_mime2text signature

The following error is displayed:

configure: error: utf8_mime2text() has old signature, but U8T_CANONICAL
is present. This should not happen. Check config.log for additional
information.

Expected result:
----------------
should configure without any errors.

Actual result:
--------------
In config.log the last 5 lines are:

configure:45747: checking if your cpp allows macro usage in include
lines
configure:45759: gcc -c -I/usr/include -g -O2  conftest.c 1>&5
configure:46103: checking for IMAP support
configure:46149: checking for IMAP Kerberos support
configure:46174: checking for IMAP SSL support
configure:46590: checking for utf8_mime2text signature
configure:46608: gcc -c -I/usr/local/imap-2006j/include  conftest.c
1>&5
configure:46637: checking for U8T_CANONICAL
configure:46653: gcc -c -I/usr/local/imap-2006j/include  conftest.c

For this you need some packages installed:
if it's a 64 bit system, as mine,
yum install pam-devel -y
yum install cyrus-imapd-devel.x86_64 -y
yum install libc-client-devel.x86_64 -y
yum install libc-client-devel.i386 -y
this should help fixing. if it's 32 bit system , just take the same rpms and install via yum
