No, it was a typo in the configure scripts.  I checked in a fix for both the
head and release23-maint branches yesterday.  Red Hat 8.0 does have fsync:

    FSYNC(2)                   Linux Programmer's Manual                  FSYNC(2)

    NAME
           fsync,  fdatasync  -  synchronize  a file's complete in-core state with
           that on disk
    ...

That is from an 8.0 system.
