The existing code (using /usr/bin/which) doesn't do much better on
Solaris systems whereby the user has a strange .cshrc that interacts
badly with the which script. If you read the Solaris man page for
which(1), it doesn't even behave the way that configure.in expects it
to. Either way, someone loses. My change hopefully leads to least
loss. ;-)
Thanks--I'll check it in.
Ben
