# Guess if we are using a object file format that supports automatic
# loading of constructor functions.
#
# If this system supports autoloading of constructors, that means that gcc
# doesn't have to do it for us via collect2. This routine tests for this
# in a very roundabout way by compiling a program with a constructor and
# testing the file, via nm, for certain symbols that collect2 includes to
# handle loading of constructors.
#
# Makes the following substitutions:
#	Defines CON_AUTOLOAD (whether constructor functions are autoloaded)
