PHP 4.0 Bug #3636 Updated: recode library crashes AC_TRY_LINK() macro

ID: 3636 Updated by: sas Reported By: kk@netuse.de Status: Closed Bug Type: Compile Failure Assigned To: Comments: Yes, the current build system assumes that you are going to create a binary which will work, so linking against all of the libraries must always work. This approach works (and works better than the approach you describe in numerous scenarios - we used something like that before), but it does not work always. It does not work, if a library expects the binary to export certain symbols. This is solved in the current CVS with AC_ADD_LIBRARY_DEFER.
