This is not helping in any way bevause the macros defined
below still use AC_PROG_CC_GNU and AC_TRY_COMPILER have ceased
to exist somewhere in between the versions 2.13 and 2.50
of autoconf. Here are the relevant changelog entries from autoconf's
ChangeLog:
2000-10-16 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
* aclang.m4 (_AC_LANG_COMPILER_GNU): New macro, which unifies...
(_AC_PROG_F77_GNU, _AC_PROG_CC_GNU, _AC_PROG_CXX_GNU): Remove.
Adjust dependencies.
(ac_cv_prog_gcc, ac_cv_prog_gxx, ac_cv_prog_g77): AU_ALIAS'ed.
2000-05-22 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
Factor the AC_PROG_<compiler>_WORKS macros.
* acgeneral.m4 (_AC_INIT_DEFAULTS): Set `cross_compiling'.
(AC_TRY_COMPILER): Remove.
* aclang.m4 (AC_PROG_CC_WORKS, AC_PROG_CXX_WORKS,
AC_PROG_F77_WORKS): Removed.
(_AC_LANG_COMPILER_WORKS): New macro.
(AC_PROG_CC, AC_PROG_CXX, AC_PROG_F77): Adjust.
