   Sounds good to me, though it doesn’t allow you to distinguish
   between “not found” and some other netstat failure (unlike
   AC_PATH_PROG([NETSTAT], [netstat]) + @address@hidden)

If netstat fails, for whatever reason, then you're SOL anyway.  This
makes it easy to test with different version, just frob PATH.
