+# SYNOPSIS
+#
+#   AX_CC_MAXOPT
+#
+# DESCRIPTION
+#
+#   Try to turn on "good" C optimization flags for various compilers and
+#   architectures, for some definition of "good". (In our case, good for
+#   FFTW and hopefully for other scientific codes. Modify as needed.)
+#
+#   The user can override the flags by setting the CFLAGS environment
+#   variable. The user can also specify --enable-portable-binary in order to
+#   disable any optimization flags that might result in a binary that only
+#   runs on the host architecture.
+#
+#   Note also that the flags assume that ANSI C aliasing rules are followed
+#   by the code (e.g. for gcc's -fstrict-aliasing), and that floating-point
+#   computations can be re-ordered as needed.
+#
+#   Requires macros: AX_CHECK_COMPILER_FLAGS, AX_COMPILER_VENDOR,
+#   AX_GCC_ARCHFLAG, AX_GCC_X86_CPUID.

+# DESCRIPTION
+#
+#   Try to find a compiler option that enables most reasonable warnings.

+#   Intel compilers.  For a given compiler, the Fortran flags are much more
+#   experimental than their C equivalents.
