-L"/usr/lib64" is part of the gcc command and the directory has a sym link to libm: # ls -l /usr/lib64/libm* -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1320734 Jul 4 2007 /usr/lib64/libm.a lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 21 Jan 12 13:24 /usr/lib64/libm.so -> ../../lib64/libm.so.6 The "have_library: checking for atan() in -l/lib64... -------------------- no" message also seems strange.
