We don't support string literals at all! The compiler supports them, not us.
If we are not using them, then we don't need this configure check (and a
configure check that can safely be disabled and ignored is a pointless check
anyway - reducing the number of executable configure checks, rather than
expanding them, is also a good idea because they break cross compilation).
So I still don't understand why we have this. As far as I can tell, removing
it has no adverse effects, enabling it means that I now need to add an extra
flag to configure and people keep appearing in the Étoilé SILC channel and
asking me if I know why GNUstep is broken.
