Hi, Silly question, but I was working on a particular project (dahdi-tools) and I noticed that the value of LD that was passed to "configure" didn't get saved into "makeopts". I hacked the configure.ac file as: --- dahdi-tools-2.2.0/configure.ac.orig 2009-01-16 06:18:10.000000000 -0800 +++ dahdi-tools-2.2.0/configure.ac 2010-01-13 17:16:00.000000000 -0800 @@ -29,6 +29,8 @@ fi # This needs to be before any macros that use the C compiler AC_GNU_SOURCE +AC_SUBST(LD) + # Checks for programs. AC_PROG_CC AC_PROG_CPP and this seems to work, but this left me wondering why "LD" isn't a precious variable, just like "CC" is. Looking at the contents of /usr/share/autoconf/autoconf/ for autoconf 2.63, I'm not seeing \<LD\> anywhere. Is that an oversight? I ask because in a cross-compilation environment, getting CC and LD right are equally important.
