-# SYNOPSIS
-#
-#   AX_BOOST_BASE([MINIMUM-VERSION], [ACTION-IF-FOUND], [ACTION-IF-NOT-FOUND])
-#
-# DESCRIPTION
-#
-#   Test for the Boost C++ libraries of a particular version (or newer)
-#
-#   If no path to the installed boost library is given the macro searchs
-#   under /usr, /usr/local, /opt and /opt/local and evaluates the
-#   $BOOST_ROOT environment variable. Further documentation is available at
-#   <http://randspringer.de/boost/index.html>.
-#
-#   This macro calls:
-#
-#     AC_SUBST(BOOST_CPPFLAGS) / AC_SUBST(BOOST_LDFLAGS)
-#
-#   And sets:
-#
-#     HAVE_BOOST

-# SYNOPSIS
-#
-#   AX_BOOST_FILESYSTEM
-#
-# DESCRIPTION
-#
-#   Test for Filesystem library from the Boost C++ libraries. The macro
-#   requires a preceding call to AX_BOOST_BASE. Further documentation is
-#   available at <http://randspringer.de/boost/index.html>.
-#
-#   This macro calls:
-#
-#     AC_SUBST(BOOST_FILESYSTEM_LIB)
-#
-#   And sets:
-#
-#     HAVE_BOOST_FILESYSTEM

-# SYNOPSIS
-#
-#   AX_BOOST_UNIT_TEST_FRAMEWORK
-#
-# DESCRIPTION
-#
-#   Test for Unit_Test_Framework library from the Boost C++ libraries. The
-#   macro requires a preceding call to AX_BOOST_BASE. Further documentation
-#   is available at <http://randspringer.de/boost/index.html>.
-#
-#   This macro calls:
-#
-#     AC_SUBST(BOOST_UNIT_TEST_FRAMEWORK_LIB)
-#
-#   And sets:
-#
-#     HAVE_BOOST_UNIT_TEST_FRAMEWORK

-# SYNOPSIS
-#
-#   AX_CHECK_COMPILE_FLAG(FLAG, [ACTION-SUCCESS], [ACTION-FAILURE], [EXTRA-FLAGS])
-#
-# DESCRIPTION
-#
-#   Check whether the given FLAG works with the current language's compiler
-#   or gives an error.  (Warnings, however, are ignored)
-#
-#   ACTION-SUCCESS/ACTION-FAILURE are shell commands to execute on
-#   success/failure.
-#
-#   If EXTRA-FLAGS is defined, it is added to the current language's default
-#   flags (e.g. CFLAGS) when the check is done.  The check is thus made with
-#   the flags: "CFLAGS EXTRA-FLAGS FLAG".  This can for example be used to
-#   force the compiler to issue an error when a bad flag is given.
-#
-#   NOTE: Implementation based on AX_CFLAGS_GCC_OPTION. Please keep this
-#   macro in sync with AX_CHECK_{PREPROC,LINK}_FLAG.

-# SYNOPSIS
-#
-#   AX_PTHREAD([ACTION-IF-FOUND[, ACTION-IF-NOT-FOUND]])
-#
-# DESCRIPTION
-#
-#   This macro figures out how to build C programs using POSIX threads. It
-#   sets the PTHREAD_LIBS output variable to the threads library and linker
-#   flags, and the PTHREAD_CFLAGS output variable to any special C compiler
-#   flags that are needed. (The user can also force certain compiler
-#   flags/libs to be tested by setting these environment variables.)
-#
-#   Also sets PTHREAD_CC to any special C compiler that is needed for
-#   multi-threaded programs (defaults to the value of CC otherwise). (This
-#   is necessary on AIX to use the special cc_r compiler alias.)
-#
-#   NOTE: You are assumed to not only compile your program with these flags,
-#   but also link it with them as well. e.g. you should link with
-#   $PTHREAD_CC $CFLAGS $PTHREAD_CFLAGS $LDFLAGS ... $PTHREAD_LIBS $LIBS
-#
-#   If you are only building threads programs, you may wish to use these
-#   variables in your default LIBS, CFLAGS, and CC:
-#
-#     LIBS="$PTHREAD_LIBS $LIBS"
-#     CFLAGS="$CFLAGS $PTHREAD_CFLAGS"
-#     CC="$PTHREAD_CC"
-#
-#   In addition, if the PTHREAD_CREATE_JOINABLE thread-attribute constant
-#   has a nonstandard name, defines PTHREAD_CREATE_JOINABLE to that name
-#   (e.g. PTHREAD_CREATE_UNDETACHED on AIX).
-#
-#   Also HAVE_PTHREAD_PRIO_INHERIT is defined if pthread is found and the
-#   PTHREAD_PRIO_INHERIT symbol is defined when compiling with
-#   PTHREAD_CFLAGS.
-#
-#   ACTION-IF-FOUND is a list of shell commands to run if a threads library
-#   is found, and ACTION-IF-NOT-FOUND is a list of commands to run it if it
-#   is not found. If ACTION-IF-FOUND is not specified, the default action
-#   will define HAVE_PTHREAD.
-#
-#   Please let the authors know if this macro fails on any platform, or if
-#   you have any other suggestions or comments. This macro was based on work
-#   by SGJ on autoconf scripts for FFTW (http://www.fftw.org/) (with help
-#   from M. Frigo), as well as ac_pthread and hb_pthread macros posted by
-#   Alejandro Forero Cuervo to the autoconf macro repository. We are also
-#   grateful for the helpful feedback of numerous users.
