#
# SYNOPSIS
#
#   AX_CXX_DELETE_METHOD
#
# DESCRIPTION
#
#   Check whether the C++11 '= delete' syntax, for suppressing undesired
#   implicit methods, is supported.  If it is, the macro DELETE_METHOD is
#   defined to '= delete'; otherwise it is defined to nothing.  Thus, you
#   can write
#
#     class foo {
#       ...
#     private:
#       foo(foo const&) DELETE_METHOD;
#     };
#
#   to delete the 'foo' copy constructor or fall back to the idiom of a
#   private undefined method if the compiler doesn't support this.
#
#   Does not test '= delete' on a template specialization. Does not ensure
#   that the compiler is in C++11 mode.
