What the hell? What aspect of autohell am I hitting now?

To explain: I added dummy.c there because a build without libmsn would
fail for me otherwise and I really thought this wouldn't affect the other
case because the addition of dummy.c to SOURCES really is in the else
bracnch of the "if BUILD_MSN" clause. I think I tested this too. And I'm
a bit confused now.

I got a report on msn that shows that the tests for the external
libraries in configure.ac don't work right. They won't actually disable
the defines in config.h even if --withou-blabla is given.

Same with incompatible version of libraries. A too old version of gpgme
is detected but the script doesn't disable the defines and the build
fails.

I yet have to fix this. Just wanted to let you know about the issue. Or
maybe someone more knowledgable with autotools trys to take this.

Regards
David
