Details:

Hello,

I tried to compile mpeg4ip-1.5.0.1 on mingw32, and Avast barked at a.exe being
some virus.

Well, a.exe is just a 

int main(void){ return 0; }

program.

I did all sorts of tampering with Avast to deactivate it, but it was still
barking.

After some time I modified the configure script so that the a.exe source code
be:

int
main ()
{

  int i = 3;
  float c = b +i;
  i = (int)c;
  return i;
}

with this, the a.exe was no longer detected as a virus, and I could progress a
bit more in the configure script.

OK, this is not really a bug of Autoconf, but still I think that it is good
for you to know.
