Hmm... I see. Seems it's a bug or a misfeature in autoconf/autoheader.

The code in admin/acinclude.m4.in reads:
if test "x$kde_cv_func_$1" = xyes; then
  AC_DEFINE(HAVE_$5, 1, [Define if you have $1])
  $6
fi
if test "x$kde_cv_proto_$1" = xno; then
  AC_DEFINE(HAVE_$5_PROTO, 1,
  [Define if you have the $1 prototype])
fi

AH_VERBATIM([_HAVE_$5_PROTO],
[here writing the prototype]

It would seem then that Autoconf >= 2.57 is required.

Still, I think the attached patch is required, since gid_t has to be 
defined before the function is declared. Any thoughts?
