It seems configure only checks whether linking was successful. I think it should check whether ./conftest was successful. configure:25642: checking if gcc supports -Wl,--as-needed configure:25674: gcc -o conftest -O2 -Wall -Wmissing-prototypes -Wpointer-arith -Winline -Wendif-labels -fno-strict-aliasing -D_GNU_SOURCE -Wl,--as-needed conftest.c -lz -lreadline -lncurses -lcrypt -ldl -lm >&5 configure:25680: $? = 0 configure:25686: result: yes configure:25765: using CFLAGS=-O2 -Wall -Wmissing-prototypes -Wpointer-arith -Winline -Wendif-labels -fno-strict-aliasing configure:25767: using CPPFLAGS= -D_GNU_SOURCE configure:25769: using LDFLAGS= -Wl,--as-needed configure:25911: creating ./config.status -- Tatsuo Ishii SRA OSS, Inc.
