All the generic macros that AC_DEFINE a symbol as a result of
their test transform their argument values to a standard alphabet. 
First, argument is converted to upper case and any asterisks
(`*') are each converted to `P'.  Any remaining characters
that are not alphanumeric are converted to underscores.
   
For instance,
AC_CHECK_TYPES([struct $Expensive*])
defines the symbol `HAVE_STRUCT__EXPENSIVEP' if the check succeeds.
