-    #	Check for the existence of the -lsocket and -lnsl libraries.
-    #	The order here is important, so that they end up in the right
-    #	order in the command line generated by make.  Here are some
-    #	special considerations:
-    #	1. Use "connect" and "accept" to check for -lsocket, and
-    #	   "gethostbyname" to check for -lnsl.
-    #	2. Use each function name only once:  can't redo a check because
-    #	   autoconf caches the results of the last check and won't redo it.
-    #	3. Use -lnsl and -lsocket only if they supply procedures that
-    #	   aren't already present in the normal libraries.  This is because
-    #	   IRIX 5.2 has libraries, but they aren't needed and they're
-    #	   bogus:  they goof up name resolution if used.
-    #	4. On some SVR4 systems, can't use -lsocket without -lnsl too.
-    #	   To get around this problem, check for both libraries together
-    #	   if -lsocket doesn't work by itself.
