Are you talking about this? dnl Fix 2.64 cross compile detection for AVR and RTEMS dnl by not trying to compile fopen. m4_if(m4_defn([m4_PACKAGE_VERSION]), [2.64], [m4_foreach([_GCC_LANG], [C, C++, Fortran, Fortran 77], [m4_define([_AC_LANG_IO_PROGRAM(]_GCC_LANG[)], m4_defn([AC_LANG_PROGRAM(]_GCC_LANG[)]))])]) If I understand correctly, this patched an Autoconf 2.64 issue? So you are suggesting that we can remove it now? > The patch did not include renamed *.texinfo files, although that was > simple enough to fix. I have included some (bfd, ld) but might have forgotten others. Can you point me to the ones I have forgotten so I can fix it? Thanks, Simon
