Yes, that message is generated by configure.ac in case if some included
macro uses AC_PROG_CC instead of AC_PROG_CXX. But no included macro does
that, neither configure.ac nor m4/*.
So probably it somehow got included from your system m4 macros.
configure.ac:255 is AX_PTHREAD, but it should come from m4/ax_pthread.m4
and it uses C++, not C.
Probably autoreconf ignores existence of m4/ directory?
David/Ken, may you pastebin (or attach) full output of ./configure,
./configure itself, and config.log? Thanks
