5# SYNOPSIS
6#
7#   AX_LIB_SOCKET_NSL
8#
9# DESCRIPTION
10#
11#   This macro figures out what libraries are required on this platform to
12#   link sockets programs.
13#
14#   The common cases are not to need any extra libraries, or to need
15#   -lsocket and -lnsl. We need to avoid linking with libnsl unless we need
16#   it, though, since on some OSes where it isn't necessary it will totally
17#   break networking. Unisys also includes gethostbyname() in libsocket but
18#   needs libnsl for socket().
