Sorry, I'm a bit lost.  Shouldn't this be done inside the AC_CACHE_CHECK?
Also, why not just do this?

  rm -f a.out.* a.exe.* a_out.exe.* b.out.* conftest.*

This whole area seems to be a bit of a mess to me.  Shouldn't all
these "dropping" files be removed unconditionally as part of the
existing "rm -f -r conftest* confdefs* conf$[$]* $ac_clean_files"
line?
