https://github.com/kimwalisch/primesieve/issues/16 may point to a fix until it's properly fixed upstream. Have tried adding the line suggested to configure.ac, but so far didn't fix the problem (maybe I did it wrong).

This is a harmless message, so if this is an upstream problem we should just wait for it to be fixed and don't need to do anything.

Closing as an upstream issue.
