Re: AC_CHECK_FUNCS always succeeds on AIX with Autoconf 2.56

[Martin Frydl]

I've tested it on these platforms without any problems:
  AIX 4.3.3 with gcc 3.1.1 and IBM C/C++ 3.6.6
  HP-UX 11.0 with gcc 3.1
  Solaris 8 with gcc 2.95.2 and Sun Forte C/C++ 7.0
  RedHat Linux 7.1 with gcc 2.96
Note that I've tested only my project, not run `make check' from 
autoconf. This is because I don't have GNU m4 on these platforms and I'm 
also short of time.
