There is no simple approach to changing the 'checking for' message in  
CEL configure. The message is derived automatically from the first  
argument to the CS_CHECK_LIB_WITH() invocation in the configure.ac.  
In that case, the first argument is 'NL', the name of the library. It  
is, of course, generally a bad idea for two libraries to have names  
differing only in case since some filesystems (i.e. Windows and Mac  
HFS+) are case-insensitive. The HawkNL team very likely should have  
named their library 'hawknl' rather than 'nl'.
