Follow-up Comment #3:

The "long long reliablity" test is not part of autoconf, so any bug reports
need to be sent to whoever maintains that test.

I cannot reproduce the problem with stdbool.h using Autoconf 2.72 (as shipped
with Fedora 42), when building cifs-tools commit
5ba5b16a73e70b586355b591f9feefbe3c493bc2 (aka version 7.3).

The message "checking for stdbool.h that conforms to C99" listed in the
original bug report is not generated by Autoconf 2.72; it is generated by
older versions of Autoconf. So it appears the original bug report is mistaken,
in that the bug is about older Autoconf versions (which are indeed buggy in
this area), not about Autoconf 2.72 (where the bugs are fixed).

So for now I'm closing the bug report as "Works For Me"; if I'm wrong we can
reopen the bug report.
