Invoke AC_CHECK_FUNCS(getmntent) unconditionally so that tests of
$ac_cv_func_getmntent (e.g., in gl_LIST_MOUNTED_FILE_SYSTEMS) need
not double-quote uses of that variable, to accommodate the rare
case in which getmntent is available in none of the libraries
checked. This happens at least on FreeBSD 5.0.
