That's what AC_CACHE_CHECK[1] is for. The cache-id can be set via environment. If the variable is set, then the command isn't executed at all: AC_CACHE_CHECK([Large file support], bonnie_cv_sys_largefile, AC_TRY_RUN...]) if [[ "x$bonnie_cv_sys_largefile" = "xyes" ]]; then ... > Another method would be to use AC_SYS_LARGEFILE, but I have no idea how to > set 'large_file' for large_file then.
