you are right. When the archive was moved to Savannah, the script that
generated the web site navigation ceased to work. As a result, we don't
have an up-to-date navigation on the web site anymore. :-( The macro is
located at <http://www.nongnu.org/autoconf-archive/ax_c_ifdef.html>, but
the "macros by category" index page doesn't like to that page yet. That
shortcoming will be fixed real soon now(tm). We can generate a complete
web site from Texinfo via Gnulib's 'web-manual' target. That procedure
just needs to be integrated into the build process.

You are right. I made the necessary changes moments ago. Thank you for
pointing that out.

Take care,
Peter
