That's the first choice of _AC_PROG_CXX_EXIT_DECLARATION; it sets ac_declaration to the empty string, and then tries to compile a program like this: $ac_declaration @%:@include <stdlib.h> which expands to #include <stdlib.h> which is what you're asking for. > For some reason, the case where stdlib and no prototype never runs (at > least we never see it in the config.log.) > > Could this be a problem with bash or is there an error in the write of > this function? It could be either, but you need to investigate more what's going on. You might try runing "configure" with "sh -x configure".
