dnl This macro determines whether the C compiler supports the
dnl "restrict" keyword introduced in ANSI C99, or an equivalent. Does
dnl nothing if the compiler accepts the keyword. Otherwise, if the
dnl compiler supports an equivalent (like gcc's __restrict__) defines
dnl "restrict" to be that. Otherwise, defines "restrict" to be empty.
