When compiling something myself on my gentoo box, I see many warnings like the one below when running 'autoreconf -i'. Some googling (see http://www.mail-archive.com/bug-autoconf@gnu.org/msg03061.html) seems to indicate that the current stable libtool (libtool-2.2.10) seems to be missing a fix that is needed with autoconf-2.68. When playing with version, I can silence the script by either bumping libtool to (unstable) 2.4-r1, or autoconf to (older) 2.65-r1. The generated configure script seems to work fine, but I would still like to see the warnings disappear. Warning output (appears many times) of 'autoreconf -i': configure.ac:21: warning: AC_LANG_CONFTEST: no AC_LANG_SOURCE call detected in body ../../lib/autoconf/lang.m4:194: AC_LANG_CONFTEST is expanded from... ../../lib/autoconf/general.m4:2662: _AC_LINK_IFELSE is expanded from... ../../lib/autoconf/general.m4:2679: AC_LINK_IFELSE is expanded from... m4/libtool.m4:4220: _LT_LINKER_SHLIBS is expanded from... m4/libtool.m4:5352: _LT_LANG_C_CONFIG is expanded from... m4/libtool.m4:143: _LT_SETUP is expanded from... m4/libtool.m4:69: LT_INIT is expanded from... m4/libtool.m4:107: AC_PROG_LIBTOOL is expanded from... configure.ac:21: the top level emerge --info: =============== Portage 2.1.10.3 (hardened/linux/x86, gcc-4.4.5, glibc-2.12.2-r0, 2.6.38-hardened-r6 i686) ================================================================= System uname: Linux-2.6.38-hardened-r6-i686-Intel-R-_Xeon-TM-_CPU_2.80GHz-with-gentoo-2.0.2 Timestamp of tree: Mon, 18 Jul 2011 10:45:01 +0000 ccache version 2.4 [disabled] app-shells/bash: 4.1_p9 dev-lang/python: 2.7.1-r1, 3.1.3-r1 dev-util/ccache: 2.4-r9 dev-util/pkgconfig: 0.25-r2 sys-apps/baselayout: 2.0.2 sys-apps/openrc: 0.8.3-r1 sys-apps/sandbox: 2.4 sys-devel/autoconf: 2.68 sys-devel/automake: 1.11.1 sys-devel/binutils: 2.20.1-r1 sys-devel/gcc: 4.4.5 sys-devel/gcc-config: 1.4.1-r1 sys-devel/libtool: 2.2.10 sys-devel/make: 3.82 sys-kernel/linux-headers: 2.6.36.1 (virtual/os-headers) sys-libs/glibc: 2.12.2 Repositories: gentoo sunrise whyscream-experimental ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="x86" ACCEPT_LICENSE="* -@EULA" CBUILD="i686-pc-linux-gnu" CFLAGS="-O2 -march=i686 -pipe" CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /usr/share/gnupg/qualified.txt" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/ca-certificates.conf /etc/env.d /etc/gconf /etc/gentoo-release /etc/revdep-rebuild /etc/sandbox.d /etc/terminfo" CXXFLAGS="-O2 -march=i686 -pipe" DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" FEATURES="assume-digests binpkg-logs distlocks ebuild-locks fixlafiles fixpackages news parallel-fetch protect-owned sandbox sfperms strict unknown-features-warn unmerge-logs unmerge-orphans userfetch userpriv usersandbox" FFLAGS="" GENTOO_MIRRORS="http://ftp.snt.utwente.nl/pub/os/linux/gentoo http://trumpetti.atm.tut.fi/gentoo http://mirror.uni-c.dk/pub/gentoo ftp://ftp.join.uni-muenster.de/pub/linux/distributions/gentoo http://ftp.heanet.ie/pub/gentoo" LANG="en_GB.UTF-8" LDFLAGS="-Wl,-O1 -Wl,--as-needed" MAKEOPTS="-j1" PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_CONFIGROOT="/" PORTAGE_RSYNC_OPTS="--recursive --links --safe-links --perms --times --compress --force --whole-file --delete --stats --timeout=180 --exclude=/distfiles --exclude=/local --exclude=/packages" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/var/lib/layman/sunrise /var/lib/layman/whyscream-experimental" SYNC="rsync://rsync.europe.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" USE="bzip2 cracklib crypt cxx gdbm hardened iconv mudflap ncurses nptl nptlonly pam pcre pic python readline ssl sysfs tcpd unicode urandom vhosts x86 zlib" CALLIGRA_FEATURES="braindump flow karbon kexi kpresenter krita tables words" CAMERAS="ptp2" ELIBC="glibc" KERNEL="linux" PHP_TARGETS="php5-3" RUBY_TARGETS="ruby18" USERLAND="GNU" XTABLES_ADDONS="quota2 psd pknock lscan length2 ipv4options ipset ipp2p iface geoip fuzzy condition tee tarpit sysrq steal rawnat logmark ipmark dhcpmac delude chaos account" Unset: CPPFLAGS, CTARGET, EMERGE_DEFAULT_OPTS, INSTALL_MASK, LC_ALL, LINGUAS, PORTAGE_BUNZIP2_COMMAND, PORTAGE_COMPRESS, PORTAGE_COMPRESS_FLAGS, PORTAGE_RSYNC_EXTRA_OPTS
