I still don't understand. I have getloadavg() in libc, so
AC_CHECK_FUNC(getloadavg..) is going to pass, but it can't get that far as
AC_FUNC_GETLOADAVG (in lib/autoconf/functions.m4) tests for the existence of
$ac_lib_dir_getloadavg/getloadavg.c. I don't see why I should need that file
nor where it should come from! Why is that check there?
