I'm slightly ambivilent about this, on the basis that my view of kde4support is largely "if it ain't broke, don't fix it", but OTOH it does make sense to do these checks in the language they will be used in.  There are a whole bunch of other checks in that file that are still being done in C, though (and I suspect some of the check_function_exists calls should really be check_symbol_exists).


src/ConfigureChecks.cmake

    I believe this isn't even used any more



src/ConfigureChecks.cmake
<https://git.reviewboard.kde.org/r/115292/#comment34368>

    Is this LANGUAGE stuff a cmake 3 feature, because it does not appear to exist in cmake 2.8.12



src/ConfigureChecks.cmake
<https://git.reviewboard.kde.org/r/115292/#comment34369>

    This one doesn't even have an argument to LANGUAGE; but CheckPrototypeExists actually already checks using C++
