Hmm. We could in theory add a test to the configure script for the header,
and just hard-code that value in a couple of places. I don't think we actually
need the header for much else. I don't know how stable that value is across
distros or anything, though. I assume it's pretty stable.

The main thing is that I've tried to avoid making dependencies on compile
checks like "can I compile something using this header" because those are
annoying and slow.
