--- Comment #1 from Rishi Khan <rishi@extreme-scale.com> ---
To clarify further, configure.ac instructs to see if the program can compile
and produce a *.o file. This works, with a warning but not error returned.
However, a system that does not have gethostname will not link properly. That
is why I think it should be AC_LINK_IFELSE instead of AC_COMPILE_IFELSE. There
are a few other AC_COMPILE_IFELSE that should also be looked at. I think they
may suffer the same problem.
