if test ${build} != ${host}; then some defaults else AC_PROG_CC fiAC_TRY_COMPILE ac_objext is set at the expansion of AC_PROG_CC and if you take the if branch, it never gets set. Does anyone reading this know what the right thing to do is? Is there anything in the autoconf documentation about not using some macros inside conditional statements?
Yes, but the idea is that, if we are in a Canadian setting, we can set all the variables that Autoconf sets, in the `then' branch. So we'd set ac_objext=.o in the `then' branch.
