 I think that's just what happened.  Anyway, the configure script generated
 by autoconf 2.50 is broken... the first time through it writes
 ac_cv_exeext=no to the cache file.  The next time, it takes the value "no"
 verbatim from cache.
 
 I'll report it to the autoconf folks.  Shall we close this PR?
