Acutally, the various tests were sometimes inconsistent -- some were
testing if a config item was defined, and some testing if it was
non-zero.  I made them all consistent in their checking for a non-zero
value.

I don't see this.  All the code in CVS uses "#if" to test the value of
HAVE_SOCKETPAIR.

I assume you're talking about gcc's -Wundef option.  We could add
-Wno-undef to the gcc CFLAGS setting in configure.in, like this:

# If GCC, turn on warnings.
if test x"$GCC" = x"yes"
then
        CFLAGS="$CFLAGS -Wall -W -Wno-undef"
fi

That would add the flag to the Makefile and should silence any warnings
about this.
