Chris@42: dnl @summary check whether gcc can align stack to 8-byte boundary
Chris@42: dnl @category Misc
Chris@42: dnl
Chris@42: dnl Check to see if we are using a version of gcc that aligns the stack
Chris@42: dnl (true in gcc-2.95+, which have the -mpreferred-stack-boundary flag).
Chris@42: dnl Also, however, checks whether main() is correctly aligned by the
Chris@42: dnl OS/libc/..., as well as for a bug in the stack alignment of gcc-2.95.x
Chris@42: dnl (see http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-bugs/1999-11/msg00259.html).
Chris@42: dnl
Chris@42: dnl ACTION-IF-YES/ACTION-IF-NO are shell commands to execute if we are
Chris@42: dnl using gcc and the stack is/isn't aligned, respectively.
