------- Additional Comments from Eric Seidel <eric at webkit.org>
This seems very complicated.  Are we sure there is no simpler way to do this
check in configure.ac?

I did a little google searching:

http://cvs.tuxbox.org/lists/tuxbox-cvs-0505/msg00086.html
https://gna.org/bugs/?11627

I'm sure there are more pages...

r- until David's question and the above complexity question are answered.

Thanks for the patch!  Looking forward to hearing your reply.
