*Nothing* to do with configure is trivial :-(

OK - maybe dropping (or adding) tokens from an existing test might
be, but adding a completely new test is not.   What header files are
needed to test for the existance of this routine?  Are any particular
libraries needed?

The difference is that problems with udpTable.c would basically only affect
that one module.  It's always possible to work around them.
  Problems in configure could affect building the whole project.

I'm not going to actively vote against applying this to 5.3.1,
but I'm not in favour either.
