The following bug was reported against the Debian GNU/Linux
package for Autoconf version 2.53. It is an upstream bug, so I
am forwarding it to the Autoconf mailing list.
Thanks,
Ben.

Subject: Bug#158969: autoconf: AC_SYS_LARGEFILE documentation misleading
From: "Florian Weimer" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

Quote from the documentation:
- Macro: AC_SYS_LARGEFILE
Arrange for large-file support(1). On some hosts, one must use
special compiler options to build programs that can access large
files. Append any such options to the output variable `CC'.
Define `_FILE_OFFSET_BITS' and `_LARGE_FILES' if necessary.
This is wrong, the output variable in question is not called "CC", but
"DEFS".
