Ah, of course. I was thinking that Peter had just changed configure
in the last day or so, but that did not affect the back branches.
So it's unsurprising for buildfarm animals to be using cached configure
results.

Yup. Possibly we should recommend that buildfarm owners running on
non-stable platforms disable autoconf result caching --- I believe
that's "use_accache => undef" in the configuration file.
Alternatively, maybe it'd be bright for the buildfarm script to
discard that cache after any failure (or at least configure or
build failures).
