Am I right LIBCURL_CHECK_CONFIG() is not re-entrant?

It seems it returns the same result the second time you call it without taking into account if you have new arguments. I consider that a minor flaw in its design.

What do you recommend?

I think I'd favor fixing the m4 to cache the results based on the given arguments.

I wanted to prevent from running curl-config manually. However I see now you have handy `--checkfor' curl-config option. Can I assume if LIBCURL_CHECK_CONFIG() presents, then curl-config executable will be available too?

Since you're probably doing this to be able to run your configure script on just about any random *nix machine, I'm afraid that there can be no such guarantee even though I would guess that such a correlation is likely.
