I think he's wishing that if configure prints something like
configure: WARNING: sys/ucred.h: present but cannot be compiled
configure: WARNING: sys/ucred.h: check for missing prerequisite headers?
configure: WARNING: sys/ucred.h: see the Autoconf documentation
configure: WARNING: sys/ucred.h: section "Present But Cannot Be Compiled"
configure: WARNING: sys/ucred.h: proceeding with the preprocessor's result
configure: WARNING: sys/ucred.h: in the future, the compiler will take precedence
configure: WARNING: ## ---------------------------------------- ##
configure: WARNING: ## Report this to pgsql-bugs@postgresql.org ##
configure: WARNING: ## ---------------------------------------- ##
that that ought to be treated as a failure not a success. I'm not
entirely sure that I agree, but it's an arguable position.
