Subject: [PATCH] autoconf: make the test for prctl have an effect
Date: Thu, 17 May 2012 11:14:48 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1337267688-3957-1-git-send-email-jlayton@redhat.com> (raw)

We currently test to ensure that prctl() is available, but the results
of that test are a no-op either way. statd calls prctl()
unconditionally, so make configure bail out if prctl() isn't available
since the build will fail in that event anyway.
