Configure problem on Solaris 8

[Andrew Benham]

GMP Version   4.1.3
OS            Solaris 8
Compiler      Forte Developer 7 C 5.4 2002/03/09


configure fails with:

...
checking how to switch to text section... .text
checking how to switch to data section... .data
checking what assembly label suffix to use... :
checking how to export a symbol... .globl
checking if globals are prefixed by underscore... configure: error: Test 
program unexpectedly links both with and without underscore.


Reason:
We set "LDFLAGS=-xildoff" in the environment, but the test
program doesn't use $LDFLAGS in the link phase.


Fix:

Adding $LDFLAGS to the link phase solves the problem.

Suggested patch to acinclude.m4:

diff -u -p -r1.1 -r1.2
