Hmm, that would be a strange result anyway. ;-)

Weird, it didn't work for me, but maybe I've put that CFLAGS statement
into the wrong position (right before AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE, as I figured
that was the culprit, not AC_PROG_CC itself).

Yep, as long as AC_NO_EXECUTABLES is there and does the job, it's
preferrable.  Too bad it's not documented.  But general documentation
about many features appears to be rather poor to me.

Thanks again for anybody who chimed in, and was going to help me.
