I just updated and got this change to the AC_CHECK_TOOLS macro:
2000-06-09 Akim Demaille <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
* acgeneral.m4 (AC_CHECK_TOOLS): Rewrite.
While the rewrite is not really "wrong", it is also not
as "right" as the old macro. Here is what is printed
when I run the new macro.
% ./configure
checking for g++... g++
checking for c++... (cached) g++
checking for gpp... (cached) g++
checking for aCC... (cached) g++
checking for CC... (cached) g++
checking for cxx... (cached) g++
checking for cc++... (cached) g++
checking for cl... (cached) g++
checking for KCC... (cached) g++
checking for RCC... (cached) g++
checking for xlC_r... (cached) g++
checking for xlC... (cached) g++
checking for g++... (cached) g++
checking whether we are cross compiling... no
checking whether the C++ compiler works... yes
That is really ugly!
