so this would become

  if (system("which rb >/dev/null") ||
  system("which rx >/dev/null") ||
  system("which rz >/dev/null") ||
  system("which sb >/dev/null") ||
  system("which sx >/dev/null") ||
  system("which sz >/dev/null")
  ) {
    werror(_("You need the lrzsz package to send/receive files"));
    return;
  }

...but I doubt the maintainer of minicom would accept such a thing.
