This code was copied over and over since many years,
since commit 9a3f670248d6f519a399e65a7232e2196b5115db
("Fixed autoconf script to properly detect missing pkcs11
with polarssl"). It is unclear what exact purpose it
served back then but probably it is obsolete. It is
definitely wrong since it means that you get
PKCS11_HELPER_LIBS even if you do not specify
--enable-pkcs11.

Nice and simple alternative to #1085... and the buildbots like it as well :-)
