Okay, maybe I don't know how to use CVS, but I just did this:

When I look at the ChangeLog, I see your change:
2000-06-08 Paul Eggert <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Import AC_SYS_LARGEFILE from largefile.m4 serial 12.
* acspecific.m4 (AC_SYS_LARGEFILE, _AC_SYS_LARGEFILE_MACRO_VALUE,
_AC_SYS_LARGEFILE_SOURCE): New.
* doc/autoconf.texi (System Services): Document AC_SYS_LARGEFILE.
2000-06-08 Steven G. Johnson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
* aclang.m4 (AC_F77_LIBRARY_LDFLAGS): Don't override FLIBS if
specified by the user.
Fix a bug: use the cached value to set FLIBS.
But, after reconfiguring, rerunning, I got the same errors. So, I looked
in aclang.m4 about line 1334 and compared to your patch in the e-mail,
I don't see your changes showing up.

After applying the change myself, I get a working version! So, the patch works,
but is it in the CVS?
