For context, it would be good to know the resulting errors and the missing flags for this failure case. > This patch updates configure.ac to pass along the linker > flags to tests that are trying to use the linker. I think that's the right > fix? If the tests in configure.ac don't try variations of LDFLAGS, I think it's better to add $LDFLAGS at the needed place(s) in the macro definitions in acinclude.m4. From a quick look, GMP_PROG_CC_WORKS_PART_TEST looks like the only of the related macros that depend on the linker; most tests invoke the compiler with -c or -S. Regards, /Niels -- Niels Möller.
