 - Macro: AC_COMPILE_IFELSE (INPUT, [ACTION-IF-FOUND],
          [ACTION-IF-NOT-FOUND])
     Run the compiler and compilation flags of the current language
     (*note Language Choice::) on the INPUT, run the shell commands
     ACTION-IF-TRUE on success, ACTION-IF-FALSE otherwise.  The INPUT
     can be made by `AC_LANG_PROGRAM' and friends.

And if I have checked correctly code which causes only warnings returns Ok (in this case print 'no' after 'checking for old iconv()... ' and do not set OLD_ICONV, which means it will be unset).
