Thanks Ralf.  However last night on #gcc Ian questioned why this is a 
link test in the first place.  Why not just check headers instead?  I've 
attached a revised patch based on header checking.

Ok to commit?

	* configure.ac: Turn PR_SET_NAME link test into a test for
	sys/prctl.h.
	* configure, config.in: Rebuilt.
	* setproctitle.c: Test for HAVE_SYS_PRCTL_H.
	(setproctitle) Test for PR_SET_NAME definition.

That looks fairly safe, and the idea seems good to me too.
OK if it works (you can run 'make configure-libiberty' on a system with
and one without the header to find out quickly).

Thanks,
Ralf
