Alexandre,
Libtool (libtool.m4) is checking the variable ac_cv_prog_gcc in order
to determine if the --with-gcc should be passed to ltconfig.
I see this in the Autoconf changelog:
2000-10-16 Akim Demaille <address@hidden>
* 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.
I am not sure what AU_ALIAS is supposed to do, but obviously it does
not cause ac_cv_prog_gcc to be set in the configure script. Instead
ac_cv_c_compiler_gnu is set, and ac_cv_prog_gcc is not set at all.
What is the best fix for this problem? It seems like autoconf needs
to set ac_cv_prog_gcc in order to provide backward compatability
for libtool.
Bob
