=head1 FUNCTIONS

All of these take the same named parameters and are exported by default.
To avoid exporting them, C<use Devel::CheckLib ()>.

=head2 assert_lib

This takes several named parameters, all of which are optional, and dies
with an error message if any of the libraries listed can
not be found.  B<Note>: dying in a Makefile.PL or Build.PL may provoke
a 'FAIL' report from CPAN Testers' automated smoke testers.  Use 
C<check_lib_or_exit> instead.

The named parameters are:

=over

=item lib

Must be either a string with the name of a single 
library or a reference to an array of strings of library names.  Depending

        or die "CheckLib: $! restoring STDERR handle";

    return $rv;
}

=head1 PLATFORMS SUPPORTED

You must have a C compiler installed.  We check for C<$Config{cc}>,
both literally as it is in Config.pm and also in the $PATH.

It has been tested with varying degrees on rigourousness on:

=item gcc (on Linux, *BSD, Mac OS X, Solaris, Cygwin)

=item Sun's compiler tools on Solaris

=item IBM's tools on AIX

=item Microsoft's tools on Windows
