Is anyone else seeing this strange autoconf error?

2000-06-07 Thread Mo DeJong
I have seen this error a number of times, but it does not seem to be reproducible. Has anyone run into anything like this using the CVS version of autoconf? It seems to happen during this Macro eval: AC_CHECK_HEADERS(ctype.h time.h float.h) ./configure ... checking for time.h... yes checking

I am using the Absoft F77 Compiler for Linux since it can handle Fortran structures and I've run into a problem using AC_F77_LIBRARY_LDFLAGS in the CVS autoconf as of June 6th. I had used an earlier CVS version from around last Decemeber which worked fine, but I don't have that copy anymore...
