I'm going to fix this one another way.

No, that will be fine, I think  The reason being that
PKG_CHECK_MODULES AC_REQUIREs PKG_PROG_PKG_CONFIG.  So the expansion
of AC_DEBUGINFOD will emit an expansion of PKG_PROG_PKG_CONFIG if that
has not already occurred, before the entire AC_DEBUGINFOD expansion.

I'll fix this one even though it isn't a problem now because
AC_DEBUGINFOD and AM_ZSTD preceed it.  We should use AS_IF more often,
particularly when autoconf macros are invoked.

Better to avoid the need..

binutils/
	* configure.ac (msgpack): Use "AS_IF" rather than "if".
	* configure: Regenerate.
ld/
	* configure.ac (jansson): Use "AS_IF" rather than "if".
	* configure: Regenerate.
