Build-error:
If configure finds that asm does not work it does not define ASMV in
lib/config.h so the c-versions of some functions (e.g. longest_match)
shall be used. But tailor.h says in line 187:
#if defined(ATARI) || defined(atarist)
# define ASMV
and the build fails because match.o is not in gl_LIBOBJS. The reason for
the asm-failure is not related.
testsuite: help-version uses
if type ${prog}_setup > /dev/null 2>&1; then
${prog}_setup
fi
in line 261, but is executed by #!/bin/sh, which does not have a
type-builtin, and the test fails because of this (#!/bin/bash would work).

IMHO the asm-test in configure should not be performed in these cases or ASMV
should not be defined for atari or amiga in tailor.h.
That's easy enough to do, so I did that in the gzip master on savannah, here:
http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/gzip.git
and I am marking this as done.
