Which feature test would that be? I certainly understand the problem, and have run into issues where clang fools 'configure' into thinking a GCC feature is present when it isn't, but testing whether a compiler is GCC is not really the Autoconf Way. A 'configure' script is supposed to check for behavior, not identity. If the compiler supports the features needed, then generally speaking a 'configure' script shouldn't care whether the compiler is truly GCC.
