You already got answers on how to maybe do that. Here's one about why you shouldn't: Autoconf is all about testing features. So if you need some feature in a library, test for that feature. If you want to avoid some specific bug in one version of the library, just test for presence of that very bug. Distributors might have fixed the bug without adjusting the version the way your configure script expects.
