Hello,
I noticed that the _AC_COMPILER_EXEEXT definition is rather crufty,
so I created the following cleanup.
Ralf Wildenhues has told me:
CVS HEAD, branch-1-5 and branch-1-4 (sic! last updated in 2002; someone
mentioned he still uses it) do not contain references to ac_cv_exeext

Hello,
in general, The Autoconf Way is to check for feattures, not for
platform name.
For example:
*-cygwin*)
EXE_EXT=.exe
A variable EXEEXT is provided automatically by Autoconf.
And the detection works also for mingw and all other platforms.

Hello Ralf,
*warning*: my previous long answer was not correct!
And at the beginning of the long answer, I recommended:
AC_REQUIRE([_CX_STATUS_FOR_CX_COMPILER_CHECKS])
(you have to define the temporary macro _CX_STATUS_FOR_CX_COMPILER_CHECKS).
This suggestion was correct. Use it if you

Short story: [ ] are quotation characters within configure.ac files.
That's one reason why many m4 macros use test instead for readability.
The main reason is that some older systems do not have [ as an alias
for test.

Hello Aarno,
After commenting out AC_CHECK_LIB, all header checks were ok.
you mentioned it, but I missed that.
Really crazy things are:
checking whether we are using the GNU C compiler... no
checking for ANSI C header files... no
[etc.]
I missed that when I read your first mail.

Again I'll only refer to part of your well-written mail, not because of
