Error in configure

Hi,

The latest update of configure.ac in CVS introduces a problem when configuring
with --enable-ares:
..
checking for curl_off_t... yes
checking size of curl_off_t... configure: error: cannot compute sizeof (curl_off_t), 77
See `config.log' for more details.
testcurl: configure didn't work
testcurl: removing the build-7194875 dir
testcurl: removing the buildlog-7194875 file
testcurl: ENDING HERE

And config.log shows (non-interesting stuff removed):
configure:15206: cc -64 -o conftest -g -I/usr/freeware/include/openssl -I/usr/freeware/include -I/usr/people/tor/build/test/ares -L/usr/freeware/lib64 -L/usr/people/tor/build/test/ares conftest.c -lssl -lcrypto -lz -lcares >&5
ld64: FATAL 9 : I/O error (-lcares): No such file or directory
configure:15209: $? = 2
configure: failed program was:
| #line 15161 "configure"
| /* confdefs.h. */

Obviously configure cannot link with libcares.. it doesn't exist yet :-)
