"autoreconf -fi" will do all of those things for you, if you have 
Autoconf, Automake, libtool, and pkg-config installed.  All of this is 
only necessary when building from Git rather than from a source release.

This is a bug, and should now be fixed in Git:

Could you test Git master and verify that copying the header file is no 
longer necessary?
