Sorry for the mistake, here is a new try:


AC_CHECK_HEADER([dlfcn.h])
AS_IF([test "${ac_cv_header_dlfcn_h}" = "yes"],
     [AC_CHECK_DECLS([RTLD_DI_LINKMAP],,,
         [#define _GNU_SOURCE /* Required on Linux to get GNU extensions */
         #include <dlfcn.h>])
     ],
     [ac_cv_have_decl_RTLD_DI_LINKMAP="no"])
AM_CONDITIONAL([HAVE_DLINFO], [test "${ac_cv_have_decl_RTLD_DI_LINKMAP}" 
= "yes"])


I can't use dlinfo directly here because it isdetected
even if it is not available in uClibc. (detected fromust-dlfcn.h ?)
So, I use RTLD_DI_LINKMAP which is not defined in uClibc.

I'll send the patch later (after doing some test)

Best regards,
Romain Naour
