new module 'openmp'

[Bruno Haible]

Hi,

Not only gettext, but also other programs (like 'factor' in coreutils) can
make use of OpenMP. It makes therefore sense to share the AC_OPENMP macro,
until autoconf >= 2.62 can be assumed.

        * modules/openmp: New file.
        * m4/openmp.m4: New file, taken from autoconf's CVS with changes by
        Noah Misch.

# AC_OPENMP
# ---------
# Check which options need to be passed to the C compiler to support OpenMP.
# Set the OPENMP_CFLAGS / OPENMP_CXXFLAGS / OPENMP_FFLAGS variable to these
# options.
# The options are necessary at compile time (so the #pragmas are understood)
# and at link time (so the appropriate library is linked with).
# This macro takes care to not produce redundant options if $CC $CFLAGS already
# supports OpenMP. It also is careful to not pass options to compilers that
# misinterpret them; for example, most compilers accept "-openmp" and create
# an output file called 'penmp' rather than activating OpenMP support.
