Subject: Use links() for checking if -latomic is necessary
X-Git-Tag: v9.21.10~38^2~1
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=b06d3f6c771addafcb76aaffdd79005dad8f5c2d;p=thirdparty%2Fbind9.git

Use links() for checking if -latomic is necessary

Use the links() method instead of compiles() for checking whether
-latomic needs to be added to linker invocations as compiles() does not
perform the linking step and is therefore not appropriate for carrying
out this kind of checks.
