Pardon, there seems to be some miscommunication. Nothing in autoconf nor automake's macros checks nor uses "nm". If a Makefile wants to use NM it must check for it by itself. Normally, the corresponding configure.ac will want to use some auto*magic around AC_CHECK_TOOL. > Regarding BUILD_CC, > I guess I'll have to hack AC_PROG_CC. Well, there are much better approaches. If you want to avoid hacking autoconf macros, you're better off splitting the source tree into 2 parts, a $host and a $build compiled subtree and implement a separate toplevel configure script, calling these subtree's configure scripts with appropriate --host/--build pairs. Unfortunately autoconf doesn't provide any support for this. Ralf _______________________________________________ Autoconf mailing list Autoconf@xxxxxxx http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/autoconf
