testsuite problem on CVS autoconf

[Nicolas Joly]

Hi all,

I just found a small testsuite problem on my Tru64 v5.1 workstation.

I noticed some strange failure for `AC_CHECK_LIB' (semantics.at:22),
after a while i found that the problem was comming from the previous
test `GNU Fortran complier' (compile.at:277) and is masked by the
`AS_EXIT(0)' call.

My fortran compiler is the native one and i do not have `g77'
installed. Tru64 f77 doesn't understand `--version' flag, but tries
some compilation instead ...

address@hidden [tmp/f77]> ls -l
total 0
address@hidden [tmp/f77]> f77 --version
ld:
Unresolved:
MAIN__
f77: Severe: Failed while trying to link.
address@hidden [tmp/f77]> ls -l
total 25
-rw-r--r--   1 njoly    sis        25088 May 18 15:55 a.out

This file remains and is caught by the next test which generate the
failure ... 

I temporary removed the `AS_EXIT(0)' call and rerun the testsuite. The
following log file illustrate this.
