Patch to us AC_CHECK_HEADERS to configure for alloca.h

As said in the summary....

rhd_conntest assumes that alloca.h exists even though some platforms (like FreeBSD) don't have a system-wide alloca.h. Instead, the stdlib.h header includes all of the alloca bits.

The configure.ac and the utils/conntest/rhd_conntest.c files need to be fixed so that they can only #include <alloca.h> when it exists, and don't try it otherwise.
