Eitan Adler <li...@eitanadler.com> added the comment:

The unrelated changes are likely due to the "regen" step. I am using newer 
tools than previously used. It is unclear to me why we include generated files 
in the repository. Some projects prefer this to avoid the need to have 
autotools installed on the build machine.

With regard to "some cases where we really do have to *run* the code to prove 
the function" you will notice that this is not a complete search and replace: I 
manually looked through the various uses of AC_RUN_IFELSE and only changed the 
ones that I thought should be changed. If someone has more knowledge of more 
arcane platforms and disagrees with my assessment, I will happily revert those 
changes.
