If a configure script uses AC_C_INLINE to test the C compiler, and then later switches the current language to C++ in order to perform C++ tests, the C++ tests will fail if AC_C_INLINE re-defines 'inline' to some other string.
It would be useful if Autoconf would hide any re-definition of inline if the current language is not C. Bob ====================================== Bob Friesenhahn [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.simplesystems.org/users/bfriesen
