Sumit,

I don't understand how you concluded that the AM_CXXFLAGS are being included 
when make builds gfec.c, nor do I understand why you think that it's using g++. 
The command make emitted when it failed was:

 ral-null-conversion -Wno-unused -g -O2 -MT gfec.lo -MD -MP -MF .deps/gfec.Tpo 
-c gfec.c  -fPIC -DPIC -o .libs/gfec.o 

Clearly showing that it's calling gcc and clearly not including 
-Wno-deprecated-register.

What does the no-non-literal-null-conversion section of config.log look like 
with the modified AX_CHECK_COMPILE_FLAG?
