Subject: autoconf: don't assume sys/stat.h and sys/types.h when testing C89
X-Git-Tag: v2.68b~134
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=234d3c32688c335ee19e8d7f409e713badb5c669;p=thirdparty%2Fautoconf.git

autoconf: don't assume sys/stat.h and sys/types.h when testing C89

Problem reported by Patrick Pelissier in
<http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-autoconf/2010-11/msg00019.html>.
* lib/autoconf/c.m4 (_AC_PROG_CC_C89): Don't include sys/types.h
and sys/stat.h.  Instead, define a dummy struct stat.  C89 doesn't
guarantee sys/types.h and sys/stat.h.
