ag_check_strcspn

DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE (ag_check_strcspn.m4)

It has been AutoGen-ed Saturday December 1, 2001 at 09:21:28 PM PST From the definitions bkorb.def and the template file conftest.tpl See: http://autogen.sf.net for a description of the AutoGen project

Not all systems have strcspn(3). See if we need to substitute. To make this work, you have to do horrible things. In one of your Makefile.am files, you must make an explicit rule to make this object. It should look like this:
   strcspn.lo : $(top_srcdir)/compat/strcspn.c
       $(LTCOMPILE) -o $@ -c $(top_srcdir)/compat/strcspn.c
and you must include ``@COMPATOBJ@'' in a LIBADD somewhere and, finally, you must add another artificial dependency, something like:
   makeshell.lo : genshell.c @COMPATOBJ@
It is all pretty horrific, but I have found nothing else that works.
