i.e., you're not actually using autoconf for its design purpose (and
you're probably annoying people like me who use a number of OSes and
cross-compile to a greater number of platforms on a regular basis; every
AC_TRY_RUN/AC_RUN_IFELSE is annoying to me)...

So don't use it then. (And hope that Linux never changes its behaviour
so much that some of the assumptions you're making break... this is
another advantage of building on multiple OSes, of course.)
