Subject: [PATCH] configure: Remove obsolete check for -b i486-linuxaout
Date: Fri, 23 Dec 2022 18:49:25 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <87k02im2my.fsf@oldenburg.str.redhat.com> (raw)

If there are still a.out system arounds, they shouldn't need this
anymore because the toolchain has been fixed.

* configure.ac (emacs_cv_b_link): Remove obsolete check.
