Well, I originally sent you two patches.  You applied the specific
rather than general one, because of exactly this problem.  Turns out it
was a problem on Sun as well.  My question was revisiting that.

Eh, the implementation looks pretty standard to me.  The thing is, the
detection code doesn't actually detect anything --- just defines it for
some platforms and not others.  That's why we're in this situation to
begin with.  Autotools will take care of that, I suppose, for a
(hopefully small) compile-time penalty.
