* configure (lang_flags): Removing -D_BSD_SOURCE

from lang_flags. Adding a test for determining
which flag reveals BSD functions. This is due to the
braindamaged way feature selection macros work on
FreeBSD. There is no way to say "give me only the
functions from a certain version of the Unix spec,
plus traditional BSD functions", so we have to resort to
using the internal symbol __BSD_VISIBLE. Also, changing
the detection test for daemon function to the
pointer-based approach.
