Subject: [Rd] aclocal.m4: R_PROG_F77_CC_COMPAT assumes executables w/o extension (PR#890)
Message-ID: <200104020722.JAB25499@pubhealth.ku.dk>

Submission from: (NULL) (141.30.125.20)


The test defined in AC_DEFUN([R_PROG_F77_CC_COMPAT] (aclocal.m4:342) produces
an executable using (in line 393)

if ${CC-cc} ${LDFLAGS} ${MAIN_LDFLAGS} -o conftest conftest.o \ ....

This fails on systems that use an extension for executables, which can be
used via $ac_exeext in configure files. So it should read instead

if ${CC-cc} ${LDFLAGS} ${MAIN_LDFLAGS} -o conftest$ac_exeext conftest.o \ ....
