+# SYNOPSIS
+#
+# AX_CHECK_CAPSICUM([action-if-found[, action-if-not-found]])
+#
+# DESCRIPTION
+#
+# This macro searches for an installed Capsicum library, and if found:
+# - calls one of AC_DEFINE([HAVE_CAPSICUM_SYS_CAPSICUM_H]) or
+# AC_DEFINE([HAVE_CAPSICUM_SYS_CAPABILITY_H])
+# - sets CAPSICUM_LIB to the -l option needed to link Capsicum support.
+#
+# If either the header file or the library is not found,
+# shell commands 'action-if-not-found' is run.
+#
+# If both header file and library are found, shell commands
+# 'action-if-found' is run. If 'action-if-found' is not specified, the
+# default action:
+# - calls AC_DEFINE(HAVE_CAPSICUM)
+# - prepends ${CAPSICUM_LIB} to LIBS.
+#
+# You should use autoheader to include a definition for the symbols above
+# in a config.h file.
+#
+# Sample usage in a C/C++ source is as follows:
+#
+# #ifdef HAVE_CAPSICUM
+# # ifdef HAVE_CAPSICUM_SYS_CAPSICUM_H
+# # include <sys/capsicum.h>
+# # else
+# # ifdef HAVE_CAPSICUM_SYS_CAPABILITY_H
+# # include <sys/capability.h>
+# # endif
+# # endif
+# #endif /* HAVE_CAPSICUM */
