This is likely not an automake issue, but may or may not be one with autoconf. You are probably more likely to receive useful answers if you ask this question on the autoconf list, and also provide the exact error that gcc outputs, plus the config.log parts that correspond to these tests: > My config.in: *snip* > AC_HEADER_STDC > AC_CHECK_HEADERS([ctype.h err.h errno.h string.h sysexits.h sys/ > types.h uninstd.h]) > > # Checks for typedefs, structures, and compiler characteristics. > AC_TYPE_PID_T > AC_TYPE_SIGNAL > > # Checks for library functions. > AC_FUNC_FORK > AC_FUNC_SETVBUF_REVERSED > AC_SYS_RESTARTABLE_SYSCALLS *snip* I'm sorry I can't help you any further.
