I'd rather find a better way to add this dependency.

Are these found in any other header? Maybe we can replace this with some
AC_CHECK_HEADER test, I want to get rid of the DJGPP stuff at some
point. The DJGPP code builds a DOS executable to run in a virtual
machine under Win95 to handle the fact that the Win95 kernel isn't
reentrant. I don't really see the point in trying to keep support for
Win95/98/ME since that is pretty much a dead branch which Microsoft
isn't even supporting anymore.

This function is used by code that itself doesn't seem to be used...
so I'm taking it out.

I guess this is to cover all the places in coda-src/venus where we rely
on #ifdef __BSD44__. Don't like that all that much in the first place.
I guess we could either try to replace those with proper autoconf tests,
or have configure add -D__BSD44__ whenever we're building on a Darwin
platform.

Not sure if this is the right thing to do, but I'll apply it.
Why is the automake cache a problem?
