We don't use lgcc_s but missing lgcc_s or another library cause test to fail.
So use -nostdlib.
We need to use -Werror to avoid warning-generated case to be accepted.
Clang uses -nopie rather than -no-pie. Check both and use whichever one works.
Additionally android clang passes -pie to the linker even though it doesn't
define __PIE__. So if compilation without no-pie logic fails add -nopie/-no-pie
even if __PIE__ is not defined.
clang 3.8 and later doesn't support -mllvm -use-arm-movt=0
whereas older clang doesn't know -mno-movt. So use
-mno-movt whenever possible and fallback to mllvm variant.
glibc 2.25 still includes sys/sysmacros.h in sys/types.h but also emits
deprecation warning. So test for sys/types.h succeeds in configure but later
compilation fails because we use -Werror by default.
While this is fixed in current autoconf GIT, we really cannot force everyone
to use bleeding edge (that is not even released right now). So run test under
-Werror as well to force proper detection.
This should have no impact on autoconf 2.70+ as AC_HEADER_MAJOR in this version
simply checks for header existence.

Check that compiler supports -no-pie and add it to linker flags.
Depending on the OS/libc, device macros are defined in different
headers. This change ensures we include the right one.
sys/types.h - BSD
sys/mkdev.h - Sun
sys/sysmacros.h - glibc (Linux)
glibc currently pulls sys/sysmacros.h into sys/types.h, but this may
change in a future release.

OpenBSD 5.9 apparently defaults to -fpie. We use -fno-PIE when appropriate
already, but that is not enough - it does not turn off -fpie.
Actually check for -fPIE is not precise enough. __PIE__ is set for both
-fpie and -fPIE but with different values. As far as I can tell, both
options were introduced at the same time, so both should always be supported.
This fixes compilation on OpenBSD 5.9 which otherwise created insanely big
lzma_decompress.img.

efiemu is supposed to be disabled when compiling through exe format.
Unfortunately format was determined only after efiemu check. Reorder to fix the
problem
This argument disables generation of calls to __chkstk_ms. Those calls are
useless on GRUB as function is dummy. Yet they increase module size and
use limited-range relocations which may not work under some memory layouts.
We currently don't use such layouts on concerned platforms but lt's correct
this.
Macports add extra information after version itself:
$flex --version
flex 2.5.35 Apple(flex-31)
We require at least felx 2.5.35 so do not need to care about prehistoric
"flex version n.n.n"; just use second field always.

GRUB code expects O32 or N32. N32 is less tested than O32, so we prefer to
compile with O32. Some systems (e.g. GNU Guix) default to using newer
n64 or n32 ABI. Try to find suitable options to force o32.
For GCC this is simply -mabi=32. While clang supports this option as well,
o32 ABI is valid for MIPS target and n32/64 ABI are valid for MIPS64 target
only, so use "-target mips/mipsel -mabi=32".

Fix compilation with gcc 5.1 (avoid internal compiler error), by
replacing explicit -march +nofp+nosimd options with -mgeneral-regs-only.
This also enables the removal of some further conditional build flag
setting.
libgcc for boot environment isn't always present and compatible.
libgcc is often absent if endianness or bit-size at boot is different
from running OS.
libgcc may use optimised opcodes that aren't available on boot time.
So instead of relying on libgcc shipped with the compiler, supply
the functions in GRUB directly.
Tests are present to ensure that those replacement functions behave the
way compiler expects them to.
Add -msoft-float alongside clang arguments to specify ABI.
Specify ABI in asm files explicitly.
This trigers asm warning due to gcc failing to propagate -msoft-float
but it's tolerable.
aarch64 toolchains do not support the -msoft-float option added by
commit 3661261f. Insted, for arm64 use -march=armv8-a+nofp+nosimd.
