11 # The following definitions arrange to use a compiler option
12 # -Werror=implicit-function-declaration in AC_CHECK_DECL, when the
13 # compiler is clang. Without it, clang implicitly declares "known"
14 # library functions in C mode, but not in C++ mode, which would cause
15 # Gnulib to omit a declaration and thus later produce an error in C++
16 # mode. As of clang 9.0, these "known" functions are identified through
17 # LIBBUILTIN invocations in the LLVM source file
18 # llvm/tools/clang/include/clang/Basic/Builtins.def.
19 # It's not possible to AC_REQUIRE the extra tests from AC_CHECK_DECL,
20 # because AC_CHECK_DECL, like other Autoconf built-ins, is not supposed
21 # to AC_REQUIRE anything: some configure.ac files have their first
22 # AC_CHECK_DECL executed conditionally. Therefore append the extra tests
