AC_TRY_COMPILE is shorter and more mnemonic than the *_IFELSE macros.

m4_pushdef, m4_popdef, AS_TR_* are not documented in the autoconf manual
(latest release, 2.59). In consequence, their meaning can change, or they
can go away entirely, without notice. Therefore, I don't wish to apply
this patch.
