Hmm. As it is, we have a bug if you attempt to use AC_CHECK_FUNCS_ONCE
across multiple languages.  Only the first language actually checks,
because we define only a single one-shot _AC_FUNCS_EXPANSION rather than
one per language.  I'll fix that first, but I guess the fact that no one
has reported it means few people use the macro for anything other than
C, rather than for mixed-language projects.
