Can we just remove the whole configure test? And change the AC_PROG_CC to AC_PROG_CC_C99? The patch doesn't update the comments about what is being tested, and the only thing being tested now is Mixed Declarations and Code, which is a standard part of C99. Have you tried running make check with an alternative compiler? There are a couple of "self tests" which run the code on the just produced binaries and it would be interesting to know whether or not all tests pass. Thanks, Mark
