I use:
https://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf-archive/ax_append_compile_flags.ht
ml
https://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf-archive/ax_append_link_flags.html
macros to check whether the compiler/linker accepts specific flags.
See the configre.ac script for details.

The preferred solution would be to fix those macros.  Implementing
workarounds for specific compilers is obviously not a good idea.
Maybe I should only check those options if gcc is detected.  What do
you think?

Best regards,
