[perl #122287] probe in Configure whether dtrace builds an object
When building the object file, newer versions of dtrace (on Illumos
based systems at least) require an input object file that uses
at least one of the probes defined in the .d file.
The test in Makefile.SH didn't provide that definition so the test
would fail, and not build an object file, and fail to link later on,
on systems that *do* need the object file.
Moved the probe to Configure (where it probably belongs) and supplied
an object file that uses a probe.
Tested successfully on OmniOS (with the new dtrace), Solaris 11,
and darwin.

Configure: silence 'dtrace -G' probe
When built with -Dusedtrace, Configure checks to see whether 'dtrace -G'
is supported, by running it. If it fails, it may spew error messages
to stderr, so use >/dev/null 2>&1.

On one of the try.c compilations, redirect stderr to /dev/null, since

The try.c in question is probing for what symbols the compiler supports.

More specific comment based on findings in RT#7586
Suggested by Nicholas Clark, somewhat tidied to Glossary standards
[perl #7586] STDOUT is not flushed before exec().
Nicholas comment in the original fix:
It turns out* that $Config{fflushNULL} on HP-UX is *STILL* undef, because
fflush(NULL) wrongly closes STDIN if STDIN is a pipe (which is what the
Configure test probes for).
I wonder if HP are even aware that their platform is still not quite 100%
C89 conformant? Of if they'll fix it in time for the 25th anniversary of
the first ANSI C standard?
(Also, given that that this bug had been present on Solaris, and on early
FreeBSDs, I wonder if it's a bug in common code they inherit from, or just
convergent mistake making)

Merge changes which eliminate VOIDFLAGS and VOIDUSED from active code.
The remaining uses are in Configure and its related generated files, along
with canned config.sh files and configure.com. The next regeneration of
Configure from metaconfg should eliminate nearly all of these, at which point
the remainder can be removed by hand.
?W: had to be removed from voidflags.U in order to not have it included in
Configure, where it is not needed anymore.

Move the thrice-repeated "64bitint is buggy?" test from hints to Configure.
Backport
16e6698bf53cbe5099ca8f3
OpenBSD and its two* forks each have the same "is 64 bit int support buggy?"
test code as a callback unit duplicated in their hints files. As the code is
portable C, there seems to be no harm in moving it to Configure, and running
the test on all platforms. This reduces code duplication, and will reduce it
further if another OpenBSD fork appears.

Howdy all. Configure has this:
#ifdef INT16
int16_t i = INT16_MAX;
uint16_t i = UINT16_MAX;
printf("int16_t\n");
#endif
Declaring i twice is a typo; The second variable should be a 'u'.
