Hi Patrice.
In future replies, could you avoid dropping the CC: list? This way,
the details of our discussion will be registered in the Automake
bug tracker. Thanks.
Now, back to business...

OK, as I thought. Thanks for confirming.

OK, so it is a failure in depcomp. But at least the package builds
when dependency tracking is disabled.

Then we have to fix the sgi depmode, I fear. But I'll need access
to an IRIX system to do so myself. Another possibility is to simply
remove the sgi depmode; this way, automatic dependency tracking will
automatically be disabled for the SGI C compiler, but at least
simple builds with "./configure; make all" will succeed.
Opinions?
Thanks,
Stefano
