[libgpg-error PATCH] doc: if ever, depend on yat2m$(EXEEXT)

[Michael Haubenwallner]

Hello,

I've thought about EXEEXT for build too and found AC_PROG_CC_FOR_BUILD to
set $BUILD_EXEEXT, but because that was commented out in configure.ac I've
not followed that further, as I was not aware of AX_CC_FOR_BUILD at all.

So yes, your attempt looks good to me, thanks!
