I gave a quick try to libraries detection [1] and I was wondering why
we bother with platform detection. For instance, do we care what
platform have libumem or jemalloc today? If we don't care, then
detection will fail just fine today and start working [2] as soon as
the libraries hypothetically appear on other Varnish-supported
platforms.

When I asked whether I could sweep through the build system, it was
partly to get rid of the accumulated cruft. But this being Varnish,
I'd take a more conservative approach :)

Short answer is, no, you can't safely apply this patch. It depends on
what you'd consider safe.
