Hmm.  I'd be happy to, but first, I see we're using macosx there.
Anyone know why that's not being defined, or is that not the "offical"
macosx tag for configure (if there is one yet)...

Could you run ./config.guess and see what it says?

My guess is that there's a extra header needed or something similar on
macosx that's not getting included when the test runs.  I usually have
to look at the config.log and/or play with the actual configure.in to
see what's going on.  You might be able to put an exit 1 into the
configure.in just after that test so you can find the result easier in
the log.

How to handle this will probably depend on the answer to 1 above.
What does -no-cpp-precomp do?
