I'm rephrasing an earlier question I asked that got no response. I hope I'm clearer here, and someone can answer. I have a macro that I would like to guarantee is included and expanded whenever AC_PROG_CC is expanded. (I.e., I want it to turn it on by default for all users of the AC_PROG_CC macro.) However, this other macro invokes AC_COMPILE_IF_ELSE, which ends up doing an AC_REQUIRE([AC_PROG_CC]). If I simply add this macro into AC_PROG_CC, autoconf then understandably refuses to deal with a recursive situation that has no stop condition. Is there a way for me to have AC_PROG_CC indirectly require this other macro *after* AC_PROG_CC itself has been expanded?
