Does it generate an object file? If not, we could just add a test for
the existence of the object file to tell whether compilation succeeded

I'm curious if there is a way to make autoconf expand variables
completely. Take the following example:
CP_PREFIX = /usr/local
CP_LIBDIR = $CP_PREFIX/lib
CP_PKGLIBDIR = $CP_LIBDIR/$PACKAGE
AC_SUBST(CP_PREFIX)
AC_SUBST(CP_LIBDIR)
AC_SUBST(CP_PKGLIBDIR)
Now, using this, I have this in one of my f

That's why we should use test -s rather than test -f, like AC_LINK_IFELSE.
