The net effect of the deeper checks is to raise implicit function decls on modern compilers. These checks appear to have been added ~20 years ago, relating to an unverifiable claim about HP-UX. Autoconf support for the platform has grown in leaps and bounds since. It didn't cause a real problem here, but when investigating a FP this came up. No evidence has been identified that this was actually broken in the past, and there is no evidence that this is necessary now. `-Werror=implicit-function-declarations` is enabled for both checks; without a working prototype they will both fail regardless. In the second case there will in fact never be a working prototype and therefore it will always fail unconditionally. `AC_CHECK_FUNCS` does effectively the same thing as the removed checks, except it actually defines a dummy prototype to see if it links. If `AC_CHECK_FUNCS` is broken on a given platform we have bigger problems than trying to build cURL. This should also be faster.
