[syslog-ng] 3.2.5 preparations

[Peter Czanik]

Hello,

Sorry for the slow reply. I just tested the latest git, and I still get:

Looking at the generated config.h:

/* Specifies whether the environ global variable exists */
#define HAVE_ENVIRON 1

When I deleted the above lines, it compiles and works fine. So configure
seems to provide false information...
Bye,
