Because ACX_HEADER_STDBOOL formed the basis of the AC_HEADER_STDBOOL
Autoconf 2.5x macro. They incorporated a lot more consistency checks,
and it seems worth to bring them back.
My macro additionally had a check for sizeof (bool) == 1 to ensure
consistency between system.h's replacement bool and a bool declared in
stdbool.h (this is for toplevel bootstrap, where you can run configure
scripts under different compilers, which may have different sizeof(bool)
values: we should ensure that only one is used).
