Blast.  I guess this is a bug in autoconf; you may wish to report it to
the autoconf developers.

In the meantime, it should be possible to avoid this by writing our own
test for clock (and any other affected functions) which does not
include <limits.h> if _HPUX_SOURCE is defined.  It looks like that's
only for the __stub macros, which are a glibcism anyway.  Or you could
copy/paste the definition of AC_LANG_FUNC_LINK_TRY(C) from c.m4 into
libiberty/aclocal.m4 and fix it there.  I just verified that that will
generate appropriate checks.
