I don't like this one, because in most cases, these aren't important.
On some machines, we even expect some of them to fail. Example, on a Fedora 19
system we run this test, which we expect to fail..


[*] Checking if glibc headers provide termios2..  [NO] 
/home/davej/tmp/tmp.U0xuPLOakW.c: In function ‘main’:
/home/davej/tmp/tmp.U0xuPLOakW.c:7:18: error: storage size of ‘test’ isn’t known
  struct termios2 test;
                  ^

Printing out an 'error' when there's nothing actually wrong seems alarmist.
Especially when we do the right thing, and include the right header afterwards.
