C source code can compute signbits itself, with the expression ((type) -1 < 0). The tricky bit here is that ac_shiftbits is not always calculated, and we don't want to calculate it if we don't need it, as it's expensive to calculate. _______________________________________________ Autoconf mailing list Autoconf@xxxxxxx http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/autoconf
