The original problem is subdirectories that don't even test for the
decl.  In those cases, HAVE_DECL_BASENAME is not set at all.  Hence,
given an OS, we must try to guess what the right thing to do is.  I
didn't add that code myself; I would have defaulted to *no* decl, and
force projects to adopt some sort of detection.

This code also breaks when included by a C++ source :-(

However, now that you've pointed it out, the existing logic is flawed
in that a defined HAVE_DECL_* doesn't override the os-based guess.
Patches welcome ;)
