["Florian Weimer" <address@hidden>] Bug#158969: autoconf: AC_SYS_LARGEFILE documentation misleading

[Ben Pfaff]

The following bug was reported against the Debian GNU/Linux
package for Autoconf version 2.53.  It is an upstream bug, so I
am forwarding it to the Autoconf mailing list.

Thanks,

Ben.

Quote from the documentation:

 - Macro: AC_SYS_LARGEFILE
     Arrange for large-file support(1).  On some hosts, one must use
     special compiler options to build programs that can access large
     files.  Append any such options to the output variable `CC'.
     Define `_FILE_OFFSET_BITS' and `_LARGE_FILES' if necessary.

This is wrong, the output variable in question is not called "CC", but
"DEFS".
