commit 5c36d61f64449d4f3a820db66b0fb3acbf60d83c
Author: Paolo Bonzini <address@hidden>
Date:   Fri Aug 7 16:40:34 2009 +0200

    use a separate program to test whether the compiler works
    
    * lib/autoconf/erlang.m4 (_AC_LANG_NULL_PROGRAM(Erlang)): New.
    * lib/autoconf/lang.m4 (AC_LANG_DEFINE): Copy _AC_LANG_NULL_PROGRAM.
    (_AC_LANG_NULL_PROGRAM(), _AC_LANG_NULL_PROGRAM): New.
    (_AC_COMPILER_EXEEXT_DEFAULT): Print here "whether the xyz compiler works",
    before exiting.
    (_AC_COMPILER_EXEEXT_WORKS): Merge into _AC_COMPILER_EXEEXT_CROSS, remove
    the "whether the xyz compiler works" message, use conftest$ac_cv_exeext
    instead of $ac_file.
    (_AC_COMPILER_EXEEXT): Try _AC_COMPILER_EXEEXT_DEFAULT using the
    null program, and clean conftest.out only after _AC_COMPILER_EXEEXT_CROSS.
    (AC_NO_EXECUTABLES): Use _AC_LANG_NULL_PROGRAM.
    (_AC_COMPILER_OBJEXT): Use _AC_LANG_NULL_PROGRAM.
