Compile errors for Bind 9.16.1 on RHEL7.x and RHEL 6.X

[Shaun]

Hi Sandeep,

I encountered this on RHEL 6 and got past it by tweaking an environment
variable:

export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=$PKG_CONFIG_PATH:/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig

libuv places a meta file into that directory, and the configure script
needed a little hint to find it.
