How I have done it in the past is to use a configure cache presetting

But this requires that all AC_TRY_RUN checks are made cacheable.


The ./configure raw code shows that the autoconf people use [:] in their own run-time test macros. Our ones with just [] expand into that error message. But changing ours to [:], or in some cases a nice local message seems to remove the auto-warnings.

I *think* this will remove the need for such pre-seeding.

The cf_gen remains a problem though. I really think we should go back to having that as a perl script. All its doing is text-manipulation or arrays during build and the code needed to switch build-hosts underneath automake so it can run is not trivial.
