According to Ralf Wildenhues on 10/30/2009 12:31 AM:
Should we also document that the ACTION-IF-TRUE part of
AC_LINK_IFELSE allows linked programs to be inspected (not necessarily
run) and that of AC_COMPILE_IFELSE allows compiled objects to be
inspected?
Hmm, those aren't done as often (about all you can do is run nm on it;
that seems like something libtool might want to do, but who else does it
to be worth documenting it?).
For AC_LINK_IFELSE you could run the program if not cross-compiling.
That seems better than the AC_TRY_RUN(ac_link) that is usually done.
