Basically, only link with these libraries if you need to.
This is what we do in Heimdal. Feel free to steal it :-)
AC_FIND_FUNC(socket, socket)
AC_FIND_FUNC(gethostbyname, nsl)
Assar, if you only give one argument to AC_FIND_FUNC, there's no
difference between that and AC_CHECK_FUNC, which is already defined by
autoconf, right?
Ezra, Greg Hudson's
AC_CHECK_FUNC(gethostbyname, :, AC_CHECK_LIB(nsl, gethostbyname))
AC_CHECK_FUNC(socket, :, AC_CHECK_LIB(socket, socket))
looks good to me. It seems reasonable to check to see if
gethostbyname/socket is in libc before checking to see if its in nsl or
socket.
