+/**
+ * \brief           Check if support for a feature was compiled into this
+ *                  PolarSSL binary. This allows you to see at runtime if the
+ *                  library was for instance compiled with or without
+ *                  Multi-threading support.
+ *
+ *                  Note: only checks against defines in the sections "System
+ *                        support", "PolarSSL modules" and "PolarSSL feature
+ *                        support" in config.h
+ *
+ * \param feature   The string for the define to check (e.g. "POLARSSL_AES_C")
+ *
+ * \return          0 if the feature is present, -1 if not.
