OK, I see your point. If nobody beats me to it, I will look into this after my
holidy.

Btw.: Many of the things that checkAPI (without extra options) Errors about should
be fixed in any case.

While we are at the (sub-)topic of libnghttp: Now that the protocol is finalized,
should we still import the source into our source or treat it like we treat (most)
other external libs: Just check for its availability and use it if present?

We are stuck with technology when what we really want is just stuff that
works. Some say that should read Microsoft instead of technology.
