quad_t: incompatible types in config.log:

[Marc G. Fournier]

Nope, produces the following instead:

configure:2050: checking for quad_t
configure:2059: gcc -c -g -O2 -Wall -I/usr/slocal/include  conftest.c 1>&5
configure: In function `main':
configure:2055: conversion to non-scalar type requested
configure: failed program was:
#line 2052 "configure"
#include "confdefs.h"
#include <sys/types.h>
int main() {
quad_t a; a = (quad_t) 1235;
; return 0; }
