'configure' does add some compiler options based on your platform (e.g., '-O2') but it also respects the options you choose. It bails out only if nothing seems to work. > Can't we say: you need a c99 conformant compiler, otherwise > compile will fail; and for those that use not fully conformant compiler, > let them be on their own? We do say something like that already, in the sense that we require common C99 features like declaration-after-statement. However, we don't insist on 100% C99 conformance since (a) we don't need it and (b) it's pretty rare.
