What causes the autoconf 2.10 version of the } lstat test to fail? (Find out by looking in config.log after running } configure.) I included that in the original message. /tmp/cca194791.o(.text+0x14): undefined reference to `lstat' That's all, nothing else. I just figured out why it fails, though: lstat is an *inline function only* that expands to a call to _lxstat. If you don't include (which the conftest does not), you can't detect lstat. Perhaps AC_CHECK_FUNCS is the wrong way to test for lstat? I don't have autoconf 2.10 installed to check the info for a more specific AC_* test. -- Bart Schaefer Brass Lantern Enterprises http://www.well.com/user/barts http://www.nbn.com/people/lantern New male in /home/schaefer: >N 2 Justin William Schaefer Sat May 11 03:43 53/4040 "Happy Birthday"
