# SYNOPSIS
#
#   AX_CXX_ERASE_ITERATOR_TYPE
#
# DESCRIPTION
#
#   If the compiler supports define erase with constant iterator or with
#   classical iterator.
#
#   Define autoconfigured_erase_iterator to const_iterator if supported and
#   iterator if not supported.
#
#   Define HAVE_ERASE_CONSTANT_ITERATOR if supported
