Re: ./configure cant run qt test program

Same problem here with avifile 0.7.38. I seems that gcc 3.3.2 has an
exit function and the configure test program tries to implement it's own
version. I just hacked the configure program and removed the lines that
redefined the exit operations. 

Lines 10232 to 10235 that read
#ifdef __cplusplus
extern "C" void exit(int);
#endif

AviFile now compiles just fine.
