Hi Rik,
I noticed that (thx JordiGH for hg classes) you simplified
configure.ac with the m4 macro AX_COMPARE_VERSION
$ hg annotate configure.ac -ucdqv | grep AX_
rik a44ff4f0a20b Mon Aug 13 15:43:49 2012 -0700:
AX_COMPARE_VERSION([$gxx_version], [lt], [3.5],
rik a44ff4f0a20b Mon Aug 13 15:43:49 2012 -0700:
AX_COMPARE_VERSION([$gcc_version], [lt], [3],
$ hg log -r a44ff4f0a20b

summary: Add AX_COMPARE_VERSION.m4 macro m4/ dir to make configure.ac simple
I am learning autotools and I was trying to find out why... I couldn't
find that macro but on the gnu autoconf-archive documentation
http://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf-archive/ax_compare_version.html
I found AS_VERSION_COMPARE in the autoconf manual
http://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf/manual/autoconf.html
Should we change for this macro? The change is very simple (just
remove the [lt] parameter).
Also the AX_ macro shouldn't not as it is used now (unless is wrongly
documented...though it doesn't work for me!) since it cannot take
variables only strings. The AS_ macro can resolve variables.
Attached the change set.
