Usually you would put AC_PREREQ(2.54) into the .m4 file. Since there
is no .m4 file here, putting it into the .c file as a comment is
better than nothing.

This is misleading. malloc(0) ==> NULL is permitted by ISO C 99. I'm
changing the wording of this error message to the one used in autoconf
2.56.
