 dnl check for vsnprintf() -- a safe version of vsprintf())
+dnl
+dnl the trouble here is that on some systems (notable HP-UX) this function is
+dnl present in libc but not in the system headers and so AC_CHECK_FUNCS (which,
+dnl stupidly, provides a dummy function declaration inside its extension)
+dnl succeeds, even with C++ compiler, but the compilation of wxWindows fails
+dnl
+dnl so we first check if the function is in the library
 AC_CHECK_FUNCS(vsnprintf)
 
+if test "$ac_cv_func_vsnprintf" = "yes"; then
+    dnl yes it is -- now check if it is in the headers

 if test "$wxUSE_UNICODE" = yes; then

     dnl MinGW has a vswprintf with a different prototype, and
     dnl a _vsnwprintf with the correct prototype, but AC_CHECK_FUNCS
     dnl finds it even if it is not declared in some versions...
