# AC_PROG_CC_STDC
# ---------------
# If the C compiler in not in ANSI C mode by default, try to add an
# option to output variable @code{CC} to make it so.  This macro tries
# various options that select ANSI C on some system or another.  It
# considers the compiler to be in ANSI C mode if it handles function
# prototypes correctly.

dnl Force this before AC_PROG_CPP.  Some cpp's, eg on HPUX, require
dnl a magic option to avoid problems with ANSI preprocessor commands
dnl like #elif.
dnl FIXME: can't do this because then AC_AIX won't work due to a
dnl circular dependency.

# volatile away unless it is really necessary to allow the user's code
# to compile cleanly.  Benign compiler failures should be tolerated.
