     Severity:  medium                           |   Keywords:  configure

-------------------------------------------------+-------------------------
 The configure script defines the function check_ld which tests if a named
 function can be compiled with specified headers and libraries.  However,
 the libraries are placed after $extralibs in the linker invocation which
 can cause the link to fail if the tested libraries depend on $extralibs.

 This situation occurs for Windows when $extralibs contains the pthreads
 library and the library under test (e,g. libfftw3) uses pthreads.

 The solution is to move $extralibs after the libraries under test.  The
 attached patch does this.
