dnl Macros to check for the existence of compiler flags.  The macros in this
dnl file support both C and C++.
dnl
dnl Be aware that, in order to detect a flag accurately, we may need to enable
dnl strict warning checking in the compiler (i.e. enable -Werror).  Some
dnl compilers, e.g. Clang, report unknown -W flags as warnings unless -Werror is
dnl selected.  This fact would confuse the flag checks below because we would
dnl conclude that a flag is valid while in reality it is not.  To resolve this,
dnl the macros below will pass -Werror to the compiler along with any other flag
dnl being checked.


dnl Checks for a compiler flag and sets a result variable.
dnl
dnl This is an auxiliary macro for the implementation of _KYUA_FLAG.
dnl
dnl \param 1 The shell variable containing the compiler name.  Used for
dnl     reporting purposes only.  C or CXX.
dnl \param 2 The shell variable containing the flags for the compiler.
dnl     CFLAGS or CXXFLAGS.
dnl \param 3 The name of the compiler flag to check for.
dnl \param 4 The shell variable to set with the result of the test.  Will
dnl     be set to 'yes' if the flag is valid, 'no' otherwise.
dnl \param 5 Additional, optional flags to pass to the C compiler while
dnl     looking for the flag in $3.  We use this here to pass -Werror to the
dnl     flag checks (unless we are checking for -Werror already).

        # The inclusion of a header file in the test program below is needed

        # compatible with other flags, and such compatibility checks are
        # performed within the system header files.
        #
        # As an example, if we are testing for -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 and the
        # compilation is being done with -O2, Linux's /usr/include/features.h
        # will abort the compilation of our code later on.  By including a
        # generic header file here that pulls in features.h we ensure that
        # this test is accurate for the build stage.
