On Solaris 10, the configuration aborts:
$ ../configure
...
checking for raise... yes
checking for sigprocmask...
../configure: test: argument expected
The reason is that gl_cv_func_sigprocmask_v16 is not set in the statement
if test $gl_cv_func_sigprocmask_v16 != yes; then
(signalblocking.m4 line 28).
Why? Because the Solaris /bin/sh, unlike other shells, does redirected
compound statements in a subshell.
/bin/sh -c '{ gl_foo=yes; } 6>/dev/null; echo $gl_foo'
produces 'yes' on most platforms, but empty output on Solaris 10.
This patch fixes it.
2020-09-17 Bruno Haible <bruno@clisp.org>
sigprocmask: Fix configuration failure on Solaris 10 (regr. 2020-07-25).
* m4/gnulib-common.m4 (GL_TMP_FD): New macro.
(gl_SILENT): Use 'exec', not a compound statement, to redirect
AS_MESSAGE_FD.
