It works with the attached autoconf 2.57 patch. This patch should be in 2.58. BTW, this patch matters mainly for HP-UX. However, neither the HP C++ compiler nor G++ can build LyX at the moment. But, a 64-bit G++ 3.3 *can* build LyX and there is currently work going on to make a 32-bit G++ build LyX on HP-UX. -- albert chin ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) -- snip snip --- lib/autoconf/c.m4.orig 2002-12-22 22:10:46.000000000 -0600 +++ lib/autoconf/c.m4 2002-12-23 08:33:43.000000000 -0600 @@ -176,15 +176,22 @@ # m4_define([AC_LANG_FUNC_LINK_TRY(C)], [AC_LANG_PROGRAM( -[/* System header to define __stub macros and hopefully few prototypes, - which can conflict with char $1 (); below. - Prefer <limits.h> to <assert.h> if __STDC__ is defined, since - <limits.h> exists even on freestanding compilers. */ +[/* Define $1 to an innocuous variant, in case <limits.h> declares $1. + For example, HP-UX 11i <limits.h> declares gettimeofday. */ +#define $1 innocuous_$1 + +/* System header to define __stub macros and hopefully few prototypes, + which can conflict with char $1 (); below. + Prefer <limits.h> to <assert.h> if __STDC__ is defined, since + <limits.h> exists even on freestanding compilers. */ #ifdef __STDC__ # include <limits.h> #else # include <assert.h> #endif + +#undef $1 + /* Override any gcc2 internal prototype to avoid an error. */ #ifdef __cplusplus extern "C"
