Re: AC_PROG_CC_C99 and AC_OPENMP

   It seems a shame that the test for OpenMP does not allow the user
   to specify a minimum version that the implementation needs to
   satisfy before it will be used.  OpenMP has been around for quite a
   while now and there are quite a few versions.

Testing for a version number is always the wrong approach, since
another implementation of the library might support the same set of
features, while having a different version number.  If there are
specific featutres that are needed, one should test for those.
