How about this patch?
The math library is not actually used by anything but the
test suite in Libtool, so as long as the C standard and
common practice put "cos" in -lm it's all good.
ChangeLog entry:
2003-02-05 Robert Boehne <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
* libtool.m4 (AC_CHECK_LIBM): Search for a real symbol in
the math library rather than 'main', it causes problems for
C++ compilers with certain Auto* tools.
(AC_LIBLTDL_INSTALLABLE): ditto.
Index: libtool.m4
