Hi Stefano,

I'm just curious if there is a reason not to use AC_PROG_LN_S as 
provided by Autoconf. I thought one could call that macro in Autoconf 
and place a line

address@hidden@

in 'defs.in' and then replace all 'ln -s' with '$LN_S' in tests. In that 
way you avoid having another script to maintain. Am I missing something?

Cheers,
Peter
