I'm currently trying to understand a weird expansion order issue with Autoconf 2.59 and Automake 1.9.6, and I'd like a hint as to where to search for the bug. A project uses subdir-objects, calls AC_PROG_CC before calling AM_PROG_CC_C_O, yet the code of AC_PROG_CC_C_O (which is AC_REQUIREd by the Automake macro) gets expanded before the AC_PROG_CC macro. Thus, $CC is empty and the test fails. As a workaround it helps to invoke AC_PROG_CC_C_O before AM_PROG_CC_C_O. Now, this is surely a bug somewhere, either in Autoconf or in the Autoconf input of the package. Since it's huge: where should I start to look? The package also uses AM_PROG_AS (and thus needs to save $CC before the expansion of AC_PROG_CC_C_O), by the way. Thanks for any help, Ralf _______________________________________________ Autoconf mailing list Autoconf@xxxxxxx http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/autoconf
