Reverse the test for __syscall(), remove the test for syscall(),
remove the definition and reverse the sense in ax_func_syscall.m4
(which checks for __syscall() needing definition).
Autoconf's AC_CHECK_FUNC defines it when testing for its presence,
so HAVE___SYSCALL will be true even if __syscall has no definition
in the system libraries, and this is precisely the case that we
want to test for, so now we test whether the test program compiles
with no explicit definition (only the system headers) and if that
fails, we set HAVE___SYSCALL_NEED_DEFN to 1.
