Hi,

I tried to configure nginx 0.8.29 with libatomic 1.2 (manually built and installed) by specifying

--with-libatomic=/usr/local/lib
(=> /usr/local/lib/libatomic_ops.a)

OR

--with-libatomic=../libatomic_ops-1.2
(=> source code only)

but nginx shows no information to indicate if that configuration works or not

The warning "checking for gcc builtin atomic operations ... not found" shows that my default compiler gcc 4.1.2 20080704 does not support atomic operations. I tried to configure CC=gcc44 CXX=g++44 to tell Nginx use newer GCC44 but it seems to ignore it.

Am I doing wrong here?

Thanks
