Currently only frogmouth in the buildfarm uses the 32bit params, and
it's not able to build past release 10, so put those last, saving
substantial configure time on more modern systems. Even if we get a
modern 32 bit Windows system at some stage we should probably prefer the
64 bit interface here these days.
We had some AC_CHECK_HEADER tests that were really wastes of cycles,
because the code proceeded to #include those headers unconditionally
anyway, in all or a large majority of cases. The lack of complaints
shows that those headers are available on every platform of interest,
so we might as well let configure run a bit faster by not probing
those headers at all.
I suspect that some of the tests I left alone are equally useless, but
since all the existing #includes of the remaining headers are properly
guarded, I didn't touch them.
AC_TRY_COMPILE(...) -> AC_COMPILE_IFELSE([AC_LANG_PROGRAM(...)])
AC_TRY_LINK(...) -> AC_LINK_IFELSE([AC_LANG_PROGRAM(...)])
AC_TRY_RUN(...) -> AC_RUN_IFELSE([AC_LANG_PROGRAM(...)])
AC_LANG_SAVE/RESTORE -> AC_LANG_PUSH/POP
AC_DECL_SYS_SIGLIST -> AC_CHECK_DECLS(...) (per snippet in autoconf manual)
Also use AC_LANG_SOURCE instead of AC_LANG_PROGRAM, where the main()
function is not needed.
With these changes, autoconf -Wall doesn't complain anymore.

Original patch by Lars Kanis, reviewed by Nishiyama Tomoaki and tweaked some by me.
This compiler, or at least the latest version of it, is currently broken, and
only passes the regression tests if built with -O0.
This can be used to build 64 bit Windows binaries, not only on 64 bit
Windows but on supported cross-compiling hosts including 32 bit Windows,
Cygwin, Darwin and Linux.
o allow configure to see include/port/win32 include files
o add matching Win32 accept() prototype
o allow pg_id to compile with native Win32 API
o fix invalide mbvalidate() function calls (existing bug)
o allow /scripts to compile with native Win32 API
o add win32.c to Win32 compiles (already in *.mak files)
but take it as 'int *' instead.
Add real test for whether ld -R works on Unixware.
Rename --enable-uniconv to --enable-unicode-conversion.
Install shlibs mode 755 by default, since 644 causes gratuitous complaints
from ldd et al. on some systems.
argument, change the order of tests for the third argument to be safe
against missing prototypes, and make it fail hard if none of the
combinations succeed.
Interfaced a lot of the custom tests to the config.cache, in the process
made them separate macros and grouped them out into files. Made naming
adjustments.
Removed a couple of useless/unused configure tests.
Disabled C++ by default. C++ is no more special than Perl, Python, and Tcl.
And it breaks equally often. :(
