1. This is rather a libcurl problem and not a c-ares one. So the curl-library
    is probably a better place to discuss this issue.

2. It doesn't actually require a newer c-ares, that message/failure is wrong.

3. Can you try to first run configure and make in c-ares and then re-run this
    configure line in the curl root directory?

(And please take follow-ups to the curl-library list if the issue is indeed in
curl's configure/build setup.)
