AC_CHECK_TYPE does not do shell expansion on the second argument.  Also:

 - Macro: AC_CHECK_TYPE (TYPE, DEFAULT)
     If the type TYPE is not defined in `sys/types.h', or `stdlib.h' or
     `stddef.h' if they exist, define it to be the C (or C++) builtin
     type DEFAULT; e.g., `short' or `unsigned'.

So this does not include sys/resource.h.
