Looks like Fedora's build had the same issue, you should look at its
patch set to see how they fixed it.  The same patch may fix your
problem.

You can get the src rpm here:
https://muug.ca/mirror/fedora/linux/releases/43/Everything/source/tree/Packages/l/librep-0.92.7-28.fc43.src.rpm

I think arch has a way to unpack a src rpm?

Look at this file:
librep-configure-c99.patch

Looks like it's all Clang's fault:
