dnl GNOME_SUPPORT_CHECKS
dnl    Check for various support functions needed by the standard
dnl    Gnome libraries.  Sets LIBOBJS, might define some macros,
dnl    and will set the need_gnome_support shell variable to "yes"
dnl    or "no".  Also sets up the Automake BUILD_GNOME_SUPPORT
dnl    conditional.  This should only be used when building the Gnome
dnl    libs; Gnome clients should not need this macro.
