Since I'm merely stating my opinion, by definition it is right. Whether or not the test should change is, of course, debatable. But I fail to see the point of a test that fails (not just warns) about CFLAGS changing from "-O2" to "-O2 ". > And they go away if I rebuild, with Autoconf-2.60, newlib/configure and > all other configure scripts that themselves call AC_CONFIG_SUBDIRS. Hmmm... I'll have to try with 2.60 then. I reviewed the changes therein but didn't see anything that would have solved the whitespace problem. > Should I hack up a patch that fixes things for you for 2.59 only? Given the relatively large number of packages I'm dealing with, and how many people are re-autoconfing them, I don't think that would be a viable solution. If 2.60 fixes it, I might petition to have everyone move to that. _______________________________________________ Autoconf mailing list Autoconf@xxxxxxx http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/autoconf
