The purpose of AM_PROG_CC_C_O is to replace CC by the `compile' script which emulates a compiler that supports `-c -o' when the real CC does not. As you pointed out, libtool already supplies such emulation, so `compile' is never needed when compiling lo files.

We know it's needed only after processing the Makefile.am files. -- Alexandre Duret-Lutz
