Mon 24 Feb 2014 08:53:40 PM UTC, comment #3: Your patch has been pushed in commit e318eaa. Thank you very much for the patch!	Peter Simons <simons>
Mon 24 Feb 2014 04:07:45 PM UTC, comment #2: sorry. Here's a new patch that applies cleanly against the latest version of that macro, using 'patch -p0'. (file #30687)	Reinhard Prix <repr>
Mon 24 Feb 2014 03:38:27 PM UTC, comment #1: I am sorry, but the patch does not apply to the latest version of the macro (#serial 12) from <http://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf-archive/ax_ext.html>. Could you please check that you've used the latest version of the file to generate that patch?	Peter Simons <simons>
Sat 22 Feb 2014 04:06:29 PM UTC, original submission: On platforms where AX_GCC_X86_CPUID(0x00000001) returns 'unknown', the AX_EXT macro would currently break configure with an error: [eg see https://pm.bsc.es/projects/mcxx/ticket/1201] checking for x86 cpuid output... unknown checking for x86 cpuid 0x00000001 output... unknown checking whether mmx is supported... ../mcxx/configure: 0xunknown: value too great for base (error token is "0xunknown") The fix is trivial, simply handle the special return value 'unknown' properly. The attached patch implements this [taken from https://pm.bsc.es/projects/mcxx/ticket/1201 https://pm.bsc.es/projects/mcxx/changeset/12fd7dc2ac9336fdd296e117165daba4bb2dcdac] I have verified that this patch fixes the problem.
