I didn't know we could do that ;-) And it's even documented. Thanks! Then, to enable maint.mk to rely on a definition of $(CONFIG_HEADER) we could add something like the above to modules/maintainer-makefile: configure.ac: AC_CONFIG_COMMANDS_PRE([m4_ifdef([AH_HEADER], [AC_SUBST([CONFIG_HEADER], m4_defn([AH_HEADER]))])]) _______________________________________________ Autoconf mailing list Autoconf@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/autoconf
