# Description:
# This file defines a GNU autoconf M4-style macro for checking
# for a build host-based tool that can shadow a directory using
# symbolic links, ostensibly either GNU cp or X11 lndir.

# test path - The fallback GNU cp path and arguments to test if a system
# GNU cp cannot be found.
# set path - The fallback GNU cp path and arguments to set to LNDIR if
# the test path succeeds.

# Determine and assign to LNDIR, a build host-based tool that can shadow
# a directory using symbolic links, attempting either GNU cp or X11 lndir
# as preferred defaults.
#
# If the host doesn't have GNU cp natively, the caller can specify
# both a GNU cp path to test and a GNU cp path to set if the test path
# was successful.
