Feel free to suggest a fix.

By the way, every application doing name-lookup (including Unix sockets) 
or using KURL needs IDN in the current framework. libidn is also used 
to verify compliance of a hostname to STD 3 rules.

If you find that unacceptable, don't install libidn-devel in your system 
when compiling. Otherwise, the penalty we used to have in mid-runtime 
is now at startup time.
