Thanks for looking at it!

No, it's an oversight. I have changed them locally.

Are you talking about this?
dnl Fix 2.64 cross compile detection for AVR and RTEMS
dnl by not trying to compile fopen.
m4_if(m4_defn([m4_PACKAGE_VERSION]), [2.64],
[m4_foreach([_GCC_LANG], [C, C++, Fortran, Fortran 77],
[m4_define([_AC_LANG_IO_PROGRAM(]_GCC_LANG[)], m4_defn([AC_LANG_PROGRAM(]_GCC_LANG[)]))])])
If I understand correctly, this patched an Autoconf 2.64 issue? So you are
suggesting that we can remove it now?

I have included some (bfd, ld) but might have forgotten others. Can you
point me to the ones I have forgotten so I can fix it?
Thanks,
Simon
