Yes.  My take is that the commit was correct: the library is needed
for --with-bonjour to work on non-macOS systems, and apparently it can
work (though I didn't personally try to assess that beyond seeing that
it could start up and connect to mdnsd).  Perhaps Avahi doesn't
qualify as a suitable Bonjour implementation any more though, and
someone out there might like to consider writing a --with-avahi option
that uses the native API it's shouting about.
