I'm inclined to agree. If your compiler is buggy for your given
environment (ie. the environment supports symlinks but the compiler does
not), then the only way I can think of to tell autoconf that fact is by
priming the cache via config.site. We shouldn't penalize compilers that
work correctly when using all the features made available by a given
environment.
