Re: wrong `configure' results (ITS#327)

[kurt@boolean.net]

Devel issue should be resolved by latest commit by testing
for availability of a prototype and, if not recongizable,
ignoring ctime_r().  This is the best course of action as
it would be incorrect to define _POSIX_THREAD_SAFE_FUNCTIONS
(this should never be set by applications) and inappropriate
to define _REENTRANT (this should only be set when the
application is linked with threaded libraries).
