# The following definitions arrange to use a compiler option
# -Werror=implicit-function-declaration in AC_CHECK_DECL, when the
# compiler is clang.  Without it, clang implicitly declares "known"
# library functions in C mode, but not in C++ mode, which would cause
# Gnulib to omit a declaration and thus later produce an error in C++
# mode.  As of clang 9.0, these "known" functions are identified through
# LIBBUILTIN invocations in the LLVM source file
# llvm/tools/clang/include/clang/Basic/Builtins.def.
# It's not possible to AC_REQUIRE the extra tests from AC_CHECK_DECL,
# because AC_CHECK_DECL, like other Autoconf built-ins, is not supposed
# to AC_REQUIRE anything: some configure.ac files have their first
# AC_CHECK_DECL executed conditionally.  Therefore append the extra tests
# to AC_PROG_CC.
