 Write a new autoconf macro to test whether a function is declared. It is suboptimal and possibly buggy in some way, but it seems to work for me.  use it to test for a declaration of malloc_good_size, so we can workaround operating systems (like older OSX) that have the function in their libc but do not deign to declare it in their headers.  Should resolve bug 587.
