Fully agreed. It’s easy to make a compile+link test; my autoconf
replacement depends on it (and does that right) but runtime is a
whole other issue.

I don’t even mind about headers declaring functions that aren’t
there because only a fool tool would look at headers only… though
omitting them when it’s easy to know (e.g. via cpp predefs) it’s
not there is of course better.
