Thanks for the bug report. I installed the following patch into CVS
autoconf.
2004-04-20 Paul Eggert <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
* tests/c.at (C keywords): Don't assume that GCC supports
"restrict" and "inline", as sufficiently-old GCC versions do not
(also, GCC configured to be in pedantic C89 mode does not).
