the patch attached to this mail (relative to current autoconf CVS)
should fix it.

OK to commit?

Do I guess correctly that you in fact use AM_PROG_CC_C?
Then the following hack should work:

AC_PROG_CC_C_O
eval ac_cv_prog_cc_${ac_cc}_c_o=no
AM_PROG_CC_C_O

(The configure output still says that -c -o works, and NO_MINUS_C_MINUS_O
is not defined in your config.h, but it doesn't matter.)

Have a nice day,

	* lib/autoconf/c.m4 (AC_PROG_CC_C_O): Use conf$$.o instead of
	conftest.o, to see whether the compiler really obeys; rm the
	object file before the test.
	* lib/autoconf/fortran.m4 (_AC_PROG_FC_C_O): Likewise.
