Just to add, you don't need any third party macros to check for typical
C predefined macros including __unix, etc. I would write such checks
something like this (untested):
AC_COMPUTE_INT([unix_val], [__unix], [@&t@], [unix_val=0])
AS_IF([test $unix_val -ne 0],
[put code here to run when __unix is defined and is non-zero])
That works out of the box with Autoconf and should be a very robust
check. The third argument to AC_COMPUTE_INT is @&t@ to prevent
Autoconf from inserting the default #includes in the test program.
If you need to distinguish the case where __unix may be pre-defined
with the value 0 (probably not relevant with this particular macro),
then you can tweak the action-if-failed (fourth argument) and if
condition a bit.
Hope that helps,
Nick
