    dnl Provide a substitute.
    dnl Usually a simple definition in <config.h> is enough. Not so on AIX 5
    dnl with some versions of the /usr/vac/bin/cc compiler. It has an <stdarg.h>
    dnl which does '#undef va_copy', leading to a missing va_copy symbol. For
    dnl this platform, we use an <stdarg.h> substitute. But we cannot use this
    dnl approach on other platforms, because <stdarg.h> often defines only
    dnl preprocessor macros and gl_ABSOLUTE_HEADER, gl_CHECK_NEXT_HEADERS do
    dnl not work in this situation.
