[Nut-upsuser] make errors on solaris express dev 02/07

[Peter Selinger]

How I love "svn blame"! 

   571 selinger-guest if ( test "${ac_cv_func_connect}" = "no" ); then
     2    aquette       AC_CHECK_LIB(nsl, printf, [
     2    aquette               NETLIBS="-lnsl"
     2    aquette       ], [], [])
     2    aquette
     2    aquette       AC_CHECK_LIB(socket, printf, [
   571 selinger-guest           NETLIBS="${NETLIBS} -lsocket"
     2    aquette       ], [], [])
     2    aquette fi

These checks have been there since revision 2 (Thu, 27 Jan 2005), and
probably for a long time before that. (My contribution in r571 was
only to fix the quoting style). 

I agree that these checks are useless. Probably a botched
copy-and-paste job. It should be:

     AC_CHECK_LIB(nsl, gethostbyname)
     AC_CHECK_LIB(socket, connect)
