I see that Autoconf 2.61 has added the macros AC_PROG_{CXX,FC,F77} _C_O.
Does Automake need to mimic these, replacing them with their AM_*
counterparts?

I have a dusty patch for this lying around somewhere. I'll try to find
and post it when I return from travelling, next week.  But chances are
you don't need those macros: C++ compilers not understanding "-c -o"
(except MSVC, for which wrappers like cccl and wgcc exist) are very
rare (UnixWare).

Aha, that's what I was suspecting. So, if this macro is not required for C++ code, maybe the documentation should be adjusted to mention this fact?

Also, what about Fortran? (I don't know anything about this language so cannot make any guesses.)

Thank you,
