The libX11 checks used the special names for historical compatibility with imake
builds. Since you're introducing these long past the point we stopped
supporting imake, you should just use the autoconf standard forms - just add
issetugid & getresuid to the AC_CHECK_FUNCS list of functions and then use
HAVE_ISSETUGID and HAVE_GETRESUID in the xorg-config.h.in & the ifdefs in the
code.
