#168 configure check for u_int64_t is bogus

[rofl0r]

the test below is completely bogus
1) wtf is sys/bitypes.h ?
2) u_int64_t is defined in sys/types.h
3) why not use uint64_t instead ? it is defined by the C99 standard, which is 13 years old, so any libc should support it by now
4) the test does not even seem to compile (at least there's no compiler output in config.log, only checking ... no)

to reproduce build failure, try to build against musl libc

ac_fn_c_check_type "$LINENO" "u_int64_t" "ac_cv_type_u_int64_t" "$ac_includes_default
#ifdef HAVE_SYS_BITYPES_H
#include <sys/bitypes.h>
#endif
"
if test "x$ac_cv_type_u_int64_t" = x""yes; then :

else

$as_echo "#define u_int64_t unsigned long long" >>confdefs.h

fi
