Subject: configure.ac: improve portability
X-Git-Url: https://git.gsnw.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=5fe631e98f982eb19512ef5920cbceacfde3277e;p=fping.git

configure.ac: improve portability

Testing string equality using "test" is done with the "="
operator.  Bash also accepts "==", but this is not portable.
The issue was noticed on NetBSD, which uses a patch to the
generated "configure" script[1].
