Improve error reporting by configure #307

Closed gaponenko closed 2 years ago

Hello,

In some cases errors reported by the congigure script are misleading. For example here

https://sourceforge.net/p/asymptote/discussion/409349/thread/d7ef545b21/

configure complained about libm while the actual problem had nothing to do with it. It would be nice to fix that.

Thank you, Andrei

The real problem was a legacy compiler so this will be solved in time once everyone upgrades.
