sys/config.h is not supposed to have a HAVE_xx definition for every
library function.  In fact, sys/config.h is nowadays deprecated
because DJGPP ports of GNU software are now configured by running the
configure script via Bash.

Please tell the details about the case where you needed this, and why
you need sys/config.h to handle that case.  I'd like to make only
minimal changes to sys/config.h that are absolutely necessary, because
they might break the few packages that *do* use sys/config.h.
