Mentioning OS and libc versions that have problem would be helpful.

All those files are linux only. Do you mean there are some linux flavors
that have these definitions in non-standard place? Could you name them?

The names are really misleading. All that this macro checks for is
whether these headers are present, so it is entirely equivalent to
AC_CHECK_HEADERS([sys/mkdev.h sys/sysmacros.h]). Which returns us to the
question which systems have sys/sysmacros.h :)
