# gl_ABSOLUTE_HEADER(HEADER1 HEADER2 ...)
# ---------------------------------------
# Find the absolute name of a header file, assuming the header exists.
# If the header were sys/inttypes.h, this macro would define
# ABSOLUTE_SYS_INTTYPES_H to the `""' quoted absolute name of sys/inttypes.h
# in config.h
# (e.g. `#define ABSOLUTE_SYS_INTTYPES_H "///usr/include/sys/inttypes.h"').
# The three "///" are to pacify Sun C 5.8, which otherwise would say
# "warning: #include of /usr/include/... may be non-portable".
# Use `""', not `<>', so that the /// cannot be confused with a C99 comment.
# Note: This macro assumes that the header file is not empty after
# preprocessing, i.e. it does not only define preprocessor macros but also
# provides some type/enum definitions or function/variable declarations.

      dnl that contain only a #include of other header files and no
      dnl non-comment tokens of their own. This leads to a failure to
      dnl detect the absolute name of <dirent.h>, <signal.h>, <poll.h>
      dnl and others. The workaround is to force preservation of comments
      dnl through option -C. This ensures all necessary #line directives
      dnl are present. GCC supports option -C as well.
