Re: --host in Configure

["Justin C. Walker" <justin@mac.com>]

Ha!  It now works!

The problem is one that's been discussed for the 'dlcompat' library, 
viz: the Mac OS X compilers generate names of the form "_foo".  The 
'dlcompat' by default that the user of the library will supply the 
leading underscore, while most imported code assumes that the underlying 
system will do the correct thing with the name unadorned.

This can be handled in the 'pari' build process by adding 
"-Ddlsym=dlsym_prepend_underscore" to the CFLAGS during the build (only 
for the files that include dlfcn.h).  How do I set up Configure  to do 
this?  It appears by inspection that I only need to do this for
   src/gp/highlvl.c
   src/graph/plotgnuplot.c
and possibly (but I don't think so)
   config/has_dlopen.c

Regards,

Justin
