That's exactly my point. You want to fix the configure script, but I'm 
pretty sure that people with gcc-2.8.x (and certainly 2.7.x, which there 
are plenty) and vendor-supplied compilers will have the "fixed" 
configure script fail with that change.

This is easier said than done without crafting your own autoconf macro. 
An easier solution is to try one form, then if it fails, try the other.
