gcc argument order:
g++ -o conftest -pthread -g -O2 -Wall -O2 -DNDEBUG -pthread -g -O2 -g -Wall -O2 -O2 -DNDEBUG    -L/usr/lib -llog4cpp -lnsl -Wl,-Bsymbolic-functions conftest.cpp -lz   >&5
/tmp/ccnWkLI6.o: In function `main':
/tmp/buildd/opensaml2-2.3/conftest.cpp:35: undefined reference to `log4cpp::Category::getInstance(std::basic_string<char, std::char_traits<char>, std::allocator<char> > const&)'
/tmp/buildd/opensaml2-2.3/conftest.cpp:36: undefined reference to `log4cpp::eol(log4cpp::CategoryStream&)'
/tmp/buildd/opensaml2-2.3/conftest.cpp:36: undefined reference to `log4cpp::CategoryStream::operator<<(log4cpp::CategoryStream& (*)(log4cpp::CategoryStream&))'
/tmp/buildd/opensaml2-2.3/conftest.cpp:35: undefined reference to `log4cpp::CategoryStream::~CategoryStream()'
/tmp/buildd/opensaml2-2.3/conftest.cpp:35: undefined reference to `log4cpp::CategoryStream::~CategoryStream()'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

This will work:
g++ -o conftest -pthread -g -O2 -Wall -O2 -DNDEBUG -pthread -g -O2 -g -Wall -O2 -O2 -DNDEBUG conftest.cpp   -L/usr/lib -llog4cpp -lnsl -Wl,-Bsymbolic-functions -lz

Looks like autoconf's fault.
