I use my configure script to check for the presence of the hildon
libraries. Put this in your configure.ac:

  PKG_CHECK_MODULES(HILDON, hildon-lgpl,
  [ AC_DEFINE(HILDON)
    AC_SUBST(HILDON_LIBS)
    AC_SUBST(HILDON_CFLAGS)],
  AC_MSG_RESULT([no]))

Then you can #ifdef HILDON your C-code.

Hope this helps,
        Simon
