5# SYNOPSIS
6#
7#   AX_CC_MAXOPT
8#
9# DESCRIPTION
10#
11#   Try to turn on "good" C optimization flags for various compilers and
12#   architectures, for some definition of "good". (In our case, good for
13#   FFTW and hopefully for other scientific codes. Modify as needed.)
14#
15#   The user can override the flags by setting the CFLAGS environment
16#   variable. The user can also specify --enable-portable-binary in order to
17#   disable any optimization flags that might result in a binary that only
18#   runs on the host architecture.
19#
20#   Note also that the flags assume that ANSI C aliasing rules are followed
21#   by the code (e.g. for gcc's -fstrict-aliasing), and that floating-point
22#   computations can be re-ordered as needed.
23#
24#   Requires macros: AX_CHECK_COMPILE_FLAG, AX_COMPILER_VENDOR,
25#   AX_GCC_ARCHFLAG, AX_GCC_X86_CPUID.
