Doh, silly uh?

Mmm... okay, I'll try AC_TRY_LINK. The AC_CHECK_HEADERS *need* to be removed
because they produce a very silly error:

as_fn_error $? "cannot run test program while cross compiling"

And this "as_fn_error" makes the configure exit with error. This happens
even when curl is installed and available, and is the reason of this
ugly patch.
