I am not an expert either, but for my diploma thesis I write a screen 
magnifier which should be comparable to the Windows based magnifiers. As 
my magnifier will be based on the composite extension, I needed to add 
such a configure check to my code.

This is what I use in my configure.in.in:

compile_kompmgr=yes
KDE_CHECK_HEADERS(X11/extensions/Xdamage.h,,compile_kompmgr=no,[#include 
<X11/Xlib.h>])
KDE_CHECK_HEADERS(X11/extensions/Xcomposite.h,,compile_kompmgr=no,[#include 
<X11/Xlib.h>])
KDE_CHECK_HEADERS(X11/extensions/Xrender.h,,compile_kompmgr=no,[#include 
<X11/Xlib.h>])
AM_CONDITIONAL(include_kompmgr, test "$compile_kompmgr" = "yes" )
