Looking into autoconf some more it appears that its C language support does not include $LD at all: https://git.savannah.gnu.org/gitweb/?p=autoconf.git;a=blob;f=lib/autoconf/c.m4;h=42c6ac1b1c29748ef7a9f9792301e3280b5be049;hb=HEAD#l65 ac_cpp='$CPP $CPPFLAGS' ac_compile='$CC -c $CFLAGS $CPPFLAGS conftest.$ac_ext >&AS_MESSAGE_LOG_FD' ac_link='$CC -o conftest$ac_exeext $CFLAGS $CPPFLAGS $LDFLAGS conftest.$ac_ext $LIBS >&AS_MESSAGE_LOG_FD' I'm thinking we should remove the ability to set $LD and if you want to override the linker you would have to use the corresponding compiler option such as gcc's -fuse-ld. That would be simpler than trying to code around this particular problem. -- Darren Tucker (dtucker at dtucker.net) GPG key 11EAA6FA / A86E 3E07 5B19 5880 E860 37F4 9357 ECEF 11EA A6FA (new) Good judgement comes with experience.
