The tests for the function's existence are pretty simple. If they're
getting incorrect results, that may be an autoconf bug.
We've had some minor problems before with our code not getting the set
of arguments right, as these functions vary a little between systems,
but I haven't seen a case yet where we incorrectly conclude that they
are available...
Can you send some output from the config.log files where these tests
are actually run? (Probably at top level, or in include.)
