Use autotools AC_REPLACE_FUNCS for duplicate functions
Registered by
Monty Taylor
We have a bunch of string functions that we provide for build only if the system doesn't have a copy of it. These are wrapped in the file itself with an ifdef. Replace this system with using AC_REPLACE_FUNCS() in configure to check for the functions in the std lib, and then put them in LIBOBJS if they aren't found so that they get linked in.

Whiteboard
Instead of this approach, we've settled for now on not using non-standard functions, so there is no need to provide conditional compilation of them.
