- *Maybe* GNU autoconf 1.0 should accept no files on AC_OUTPUT(), and
- still produce a legal config.status. Right now, it gives:
-
- [...]
- top_srcdir=$srcdir
- for file in ; do
- srcdir=$top_srcdir
- [...]
-
- which generates a shell syntax error. The whole for loop could be
- omitted. Sometimes, the config.status file *is* the main output.
