The installed headers may not even exist; if they are, they
won't tell us anything about the binaries we're running.  If
you really want to test for its presence, you'd need to somehow
directly test both the running kernel and the installed xfs_quota
binary.

But whether or not we should run the test if XGETQSTATV is not
present is another question; adding XGETQSTATV fixed a problem
of incorrect reporting; if the test fails, we know the environment
is not capable of that, and is reporting bad information.

So it comes down to whether the test is intended to verify
that the "xfs_quota -c state" command is working, or whether
the XGETQSTATV interface is working, etc.

Generally, we don't restrict test runs to environments where we
know the test will pass.  So I would say that allowing this to
run and fail is the correct option; it tells us that the installed
kernel+xfsprogs will report bad information from the "state" command,
and that is useful information to the tester.
