You detect like a third of the things that the old configure
detected. Most of the comments of converted tests are missing. The
thread safety check definitely aren't comparable. The int128 type checks
aren't comparable. No LLVM detection. The atomics check don't guard
against compilers that allow to reference undefined functions at compile
time.  That's like a 60s scan of what you have. Sorry, but comparing
lines at that state is just bullshit.
