Have ./configure use the compiler return code for error indication.

Have ./configure use the compiler return code for error indication.

Previously ./configure would use any output on stderr as an indication
that the compilation failed.  However if some compiler wrapper uses
stderr for some other purpose, e.g. distcc for nodes going down, then
./configure would not properly configure the build.  This problem was
noted by Mike Frysinger.  For backwards compatibility, ./configure
will revert to the old way, i.e. checking for anything on stderr, if
when it deliberately runs the compiler with an error, a zero exit
status is returned.
