# SYNOPSIS
#
#   AX_COMPILER_VENDOR
#
# DESCRIPTION
#
#   Determine the vendor of the C/C++ compiler, e.g., gnu, intel, ibm, sun,
#   hp, borland, comeau, dec, cray, kai, lcc, metrowerks, sgi, microsoft,
#   watcom, etc. The vendor is returned in the cache variable
#   $ax_cv_c_compiler_vendor for C and $ax_cv_cxx_compiler_vendor for C++.

## Note, we have patch this macro compared to official macro as we've
## moved down GCC in the list. This was motivated by the fact that
## many compilers defined __GNUC__ and therefore the test for GCC have
## many false positives and it is better to have that test as late as
## possible.
