  1. URGENT PROBLEM with the 6.3->6.3.1 patch

    Andrew Martin <martin@biochemistry.ucl.ac.uk> — 1998-03-23T17:43:41Z

    The patch to configure contains the following:
    
    *** 3316,3322 ****
      fi
      rm -f conftest*
      
    ! if test x$ac_cv_prog_gcc = xyes; then
          echo $ac_n "checking whether ${CC-cc} needs -traditional""... $ac_c" 1>&6
      echo "configure:3322: checking whether ${CC-cc} needs -traditional" >&5
      if eval "test \"`echo '$''{'ac_cv_prog_gcc_traditional'+set}'`\" = set"; then
    --- 3316,3322 ----
      fi
      rm -f conftest*
      
    ! if test $ac_cv_prog_gcc = yes; then
          echo $ac_n "checking whether ${CC-cc} needs -traditional""... $ac_c" 1>&6
      echo "configure:3322: checking whether ${CC-cc} needs -traditional" >&5
      if eval "test \"`echo '$''{'ac_cv_prog_gcc_traditional'+set}'`\" = set"; then
    
    
    I am worried that this has undone the patch which was required to get 
    configure to run properly with anything other than GCC. (I haven't
    actually tried 6.3.1, but this change affects that area of the code and
    doesn't look healthy...)
