# PGAC_CHECK_PERL_EMBED_CCFLAGS
# -----------------------------
-# We selectively extract stuff from $Config{ccflags}. We don't really need
-# anything except -D switches, and other sorts of compiler switches can
-# actively break things if Perl was compiled with a different compiler.
-# Moreover, although Perl likes to put stuff like -D_LARGEFILE_SOURCE and
-# -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 here, it would be fatal to try to compile PL/Perl
-# to a different libc ABI than core Postgres uses. The available information
-# says that all the symbols that affect Perl's own ABI begin with letters,
-# so it should be sufficient to adopt -D switches for symbols not beginning
-# with underscore. An exception is that we need to let through
-# -D_USE_32BIT_TIME_T if it's present. (We probably could restrict that to
-# only get through on Windows, but for the moment we let it through always.)
-# For debugging purposes, let's have the configure output report the raw
-# ccflags value as well as the set of flags we chose to adopt.
