Bug description:  Fileinfo/libmagic linking fails with undefined symbol .asprintf/.vasprintf

Description:
------------
Linking failure referring to undefined symbols ".vasprintf" and
".asprintf".

Looking in ext/fileinfo/libmagic indicates that those functions are used
in funcs.c and softmagic.c.

Googling indicates that asprintf() and vasprintf() require stdio.h and
linking against the C library (-lc).

Reproduce code:
---------------
#! /bin/sh
#
# Created by configure

LDFLAGS='-Wl,-bbigtoc' \
CC='gcc' \
'./configure' \
'--enable-bcmath' \
'--enable-calendar' \

'--enable-dba' \
'--enable-dbase' \
'--enable-debug' \

'--with-png-dir' \
'--with-xmlrpc' \
'--with-xpm-dir' \
'--with-xsl' \
'--with-zlib' \
'--with-zlib-dir' \
"$@"

(GNU) make

Expected result:
----------------
Successful compilation/linking.
