 ******************
 
 Once `configure' has determined whether a feature exists, what can it
 do to record that information?  There are four sorts of things it can
 do: define a C preprocessor symbol, set a variable in the output files,
 save the result in a cache file for future `configure' runs, and print
 a message letting the user know the result of the test.
