ac_define_path_style

_AC_DEFINE(PATH_STYLE) describing the filesys interface. The value is numeric, where the basetype is encoded as 16 = dos/win, 32 = unix, 64 = url/www, 0 = other

note that there could be a combination of the values that should lead you to accept multiple forms of PATH_SEP and DIR_SEP
