C++ and AC_C_INLINE for small projects

Hello!

I'm not an autoconf expert, so please excuse any novice errors.
I'm working on AIX with the C++ compiler xlC 6.

Because I have read the thread "Using AC_C_INLINE blows up C++ tests" in June,
I've already updated autoconf to version 2.57b, so the patch described in the
thread is incorporated.

The problem is, that the patch only workds when the autoconfigured package uses
the config.h-Header file.
When the package is only a small package that wants to get its definition via
the command line, you're still lost as you only get the "-Dinline=__inline" (or
whatever) definition, even when compiling a C++-file.

Any ideas?

Olaf
