Re: posix_fadvise v22

Sorry for top-posting -- phone mail client sucks.

I thought the autoconf ac_run_check was the test that people were  
questioning. That calls posix_fadvise to see if it crashes at  
configure time.

The guc run-time check is checking for known-buggy versions of glibc  
using sysconf to check what version of glibc you have.
