You got especially unlucky in hitting such a dark corner of Autoconf so early. ;-) <http://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf/manual/html_node/Dependencies-Between-Macros.html> explains the general issue which is at work here. Add to that the fact that AC_PROG_CC is a rather complicated macro. So, while for the bulk of other macros, this AC_INIT(test, 1.0) AS_IF([test false = true], [AC_PROG_CC], [AC_PROG_CC]) AC_OUTPUT would be a suitable workaround, it isn't for AC_PROG_CC, unfortunately. The fix is not to call the AC_PROG_CC macro conditionally. Hope that helps.
