If I have a large number of headers to check for with AC_CHECK_HEADERS--say 20 items, I don't want to have to put them all on the same line. So I do something like the following:
AC_CHECK_HEADERS( file.h file1.h ... file6.h \ file7.h file8.h ... file12.h \ file13.h) However, the code produced by the macro doesn't copy the '\' so it sees the newline and obviously breaks. Is there anyway around this other than to write a bunch of AC_CHECK_HEADERS (thus expanding the configure code a bunch?)
