The rationale probaly was that when someone is filling in the config.h.in template manually, they could possibly define the macro to 0. (Or is it that a prehistoric version of autoconf did this? If yes, it has to be more than 12 years, so we are not bounded by it.) Anyway, there still is no reason agains switching to #ifdef, both in the manual and in the code.
