[acinclude.m4] MPFR_CHECK_MP_LIMB_T_VS_LONG: updated comment to say
that using MPFR_ASSERTN (as the code tries to do if static assertions are not supported, but currently fails) would be incorrect. git-svn-id: svn://scm.gforge.inria.fr/svn/mpfr/trunk@13946 280ebfd0-de03-0410-8827-d642c229c3f4

dnl because static assertions are not supported, so that MPFR_ASSERTN
dnl is used, but it is not defined by "mpfr-sassert.h". The consequence
dnl is that the program fails, and MPFR_LONG_WITHIN_LIMB is not defined

+dnl while it should be. Conversely, using MPFR_ASSERTN would be incorrect

dnl and possibly to find new bugs, like in r12252:
