Hash :9f325eea Message :automake: assume we can always pass '-o' to the C compiler
It is assumed that we can pass -c -o to the C compiler, so remove
some special casing and always do that.
This change is similar in spirit to v1.13.1d-217-g7299c4d "depend: assume
we can always pass '-o' to the C compiler"
This change also happen to fix a testsuite failure
(t/silent-many-languages.sh) when mixing MSVC and GNU fortran, which
have different default object file extensions (.obj vs. .o). This
difference in object file extension is not handled well and caused
Automake to look for MSVC objects with .o extension. Always using -o
makes MSVC create .o object files and linking succeeds. Not that
anybody recommends mixing toolchains or anything.
* bin/automake.in (handle_languages): Remove conditional modification
of 'output_flag' entry for 'c'.
(register_language ('name' => 'c')): Add 'output_flag' entry set to '-o'.
