I get:
checking for libsigsegv... yes
checking how to link with libsigsegv... /usr/lib/libsigsegv.so
/usr/lib/libc.a
Is this really a multiline string (also in the value of LIBSIGSEGV in
.sconfigtatus)? Or are these space-separated values?
It's email wrapping. It is one line in the log.
$ grep LIBSIGSEGV config.status
S["LIBSIGSEGV_PREFIX"]="/usr"
S["LTLIBSIGSEGV"]="-L/usr/lib -lsigsegv -lc"
S["LIBSIGSEGV"]="/usr/lib/libsigsegv.so -lc"
S["HAVE_LIBSIGSEGV"]="yes"
D["HAVE_LIBSIGSEGV"]=" 1"
D["HAVE_LIBSIGSEGV"]=" 1"
In the latter case, is linking with libc.a normally working?
No it is not.
Also, if there is a file /usr/lib/libsigsegv.la, can you please show
its contents?

----------
But I think the problem is libc.a, not libsigsegv.
One additional note: adding --prefix=/usr to configure causes the
problem. If I only add --bindir=/bin, then the problem does not occur.
