Something like this: my_LIBS=$LIBS LIBS="-lutil $LIBS" AC_LINK_IFELSE(...) # restore LIBS with my_LIBS, or do whatever else you need to do But you could also look into using AC_CHECK_LIB and its 5th argument. If it is clear that libutil won't depend on any other libraries, you could also append it to LIBS. In any case you should make sure that -lfoo comes before -lutil in your build.
