Thanks for reporting that.  Can you please verify that the following C
program does not compile, on your platform?

   static long int longval () { return **0**; }
   static unsigned long int ulongval () { return **0**; }
   #include stdio.h
   #include stdlib.h
   int
   main ()
   {

 FILE *f = fopen (conftest.val, w);
 if (! f)
   return 1;
 if ((**0**)  0)
   {
 long int i = longval ();
 if (i != (**0**))
   return 1;
 fprintf (f, %ld\n, i);
   }
 else
   {
 unsigned long int i = ulongval ();
 if (i != (**0**))
   return 1;
 fprintf (f, %lu\n, i);
   }
 return ferror (f) || fclose (f) != 0;

 ;
 return 0;
   }

I.e., can you verify that the command gcc -g -O2 foo.c; echo $?
echos a nonzero value at the end?  Here's what happens on my platform:

   $ gcc -g -O2 foo.c; echo $?
   foo.c: In function 'longval':
   foo.c:1: error: invalid type argument of 'unary *'
   foo.c:1: error: expected expression before ';' token
   foo.c: In function 'main':
   foo.c:12: error: invalid type argument of 'unary *'
   foo.c:12: error: expected expression before ')' token
   foo.c:15: error: invalid type argument of 'unary *'
   foo.c:15: error: expected expression before ')' token
   foo.c:22: error: 'i' undeclared (first use in this function)
   foo.c:22: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
   foo.c:22: error: for each function it appears in.)
   foo.c:22: error: invalid type argument of 'unary *'
   foo.c:22: error: expected expression before ')' token
   1

For now, I'll assume that it does not compile, and so I installed the
following patch, but I'd like you to verify my assumption.  Thanks.

* tests/base.at (AC_COMPUTE_INT): Test **0** rather than 1 / 0,
since powerpc-apple-darwin8-gcc-4.0.1 (Apple Computer, Inc. build
5363) simply issues a warning when dividing by zero at compile
time.  Problem reported by Elias Pipping.
