Ticket details:
Configure with tcc fails on S3_0+. The reason is that those branches use AC_C_VARARRAYS(), while older branches used custom macro of our own (AC_C_VARARRAYS() wasn't available at the time it was introduced). AC_C_VARARRAYS() is a more complete check for vararrays support than our custom macro was. Needlessly so, as our own macro checked the constructs we actually need.
We should probably reintroduce our own macro.
