Hm, I don't understand this sentence too well. CFLAGS should be
initialized, so you should not face this problem.
Could you give a try to Automake without the following else branch?
Just remove the - lines below from macro_define:
# An Automake variable must be consistently defined with the same
# sign by Automake. A user variable must be set by either `=' or
# `:=', and later promoted to `+='.
if ($var_is_am)
{
if (defined $var_type{$var} && $var_type{$var} ne $type)
{
am_line_error ($var,
("$var was set with `$var_type{$var}=' "
. "and is now set with `$type='"));
}
}
- else
- {
- if (!defined $var_type{$var} && $type eq '+')
- {
- am_line_error ($var, "$var must be set with `=' before using `+='");
- }
- }
$var_type{$var} = $type;
