Hi
It turns out that there are systems (NCR MP-RAS (svr4)) that require TWO libs
for gethostbyname() and connect() should compile/build properly. The current
configure rule only checks for one lib at a time and thus both checks fails
on this system and it won't build properly.
Yes, you can enter the libs manually when running configure but I would of
course prefer a solution that works automatically.
Today, the configure.in line looks like:
AC_CHECK_FUNC(gethostbyname, , AC_CHECK_LIB(nsl, gethostbyname))
... and it seems as if the AC_CHECK_LIB() macro only can deal with a single
lib at a time.
Does anyone have a good fix for this?
