Well on the system in question ppc-apple-darwin-7.8.0 the perl script
in question simply doesn't work. Since there doesn't appear to be
much in the way of it inside acinclude.m4 it appears that setting
unconditionally enable_symvers inside the following:

I can confirm now that --disable-symvers worked fine on my system.

This perl script works just fine for me on powerpc-darwin7.9.0 I don't
see why are we piping the output to nm when it should be piping nm's
output to c++filt.

Also this perl script works fine on powerpc-darwin7.4.0 also.

Well to be a bit more precise I have the following at hand:

uname -a
Darwin dzc14.neoplus.adsl.tpnet.pl 8.2.0 Darwin Kernel Version 8.2.0: Fri Jun 24 17:46:54 PDT 2005; root:xnu 792.2.4.obj~3/RELEASE_PPC Power Macintosh powerpc

The configure scripting drama translates this in to:
ppc-apple-darwin7.8.0.

I'm not quite sure if this is correct since guessing the GCC version interpretation here I would expect this to came out as:

ppc-apple-darwin7.9.2

aka: Tiger darwin 10.4.2

A fairly plain system without any additional fink darwinports or similar packages. Perhaps this could be the cause that we have basically different nm programs in action here?
