Hello everyone,

For libiconv builds using Windows ICC got error:

which relate to missing Windows ICC support in 'compile' (http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/automake.git/tree/lib/compile) script.


Reproduced for:
- shared builds using Windows ICC,

not reproduced for:
- static builds using Windows ICC,
- shared builds using mingw-w64 and MSVC.


Environment:
  - Windows 10 x64,
  - ICC 2018 Update 1,
  - MSVC 2017 15.5.0,
  - Windows SDK 10.0.16299.15,
  - mingw-w64 x86_64 7.2.0,
  - MSYS2 x86_64 20170918,
  - libiconv 1.15.


The same error reproduced for shared builds of other OSS Projects with Autotools-based build systems.


MSYS2 (msys2.org) Project provide a fix for 'compile' script, which they distribute:
===============================================================
diff --git a/compile b/compile
index 531136b..2be28ec 100644

     func_cl_wrapper "$@"      # Doesn't return...

===============================================================

but it's not convenient to update build system of OSS Projects before each build.
Can this fix be merged to Automake sources directly?


Best,

Alexander
