Subject: [PATCH] Refine configure messages when checking for compiler options

* configure.ac (AC_MSG_CHECKING, AC_MSG_RESULT): Refine message when
checking for a compiler option support (replace "gcc" with "compiler"),
and when reporting PIC option required; put string in [].
* configure.ac (AC_MSG_RESULT): Do not put string in quotes.
