The documentation for AC_TRY_LINK at https://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf/manual/autoconf-2.69/html_node/Obsolete-Macros.html
has a cross-reference to "Running the Compiler". Presumably this
should be "Running the Linker" instead.

Patch attached to fix it, and also make the link in AC_TRY_LINK_FUNC
consistent.

    doc: Fix cross-reference for AC_TRY_LINK
    
        * doc/autoconf.texi (Obsolete Macros): Link to AC_LINK_IFELSE node
        rather than AC_COMPILE_IFELSE. Use consistent link for
        AC_TRY_LINK_FUNC.
