-# is specified. (Use --with-lint=sparse for sparse.)

-# Sets LINT automake conditional if enabled (default: disabled)
+# This macro enables the use of a tool that flags some suspicious and
+# non-portable constructs (likely to be bugs) in C language source code.
+# It will attempt to locate the tool and use appropriate options.
+# There are various lint type tools on different platforms.
+#
+# Interface to module:
+# LINT: returns the path to the tool found on the platform
+# or the value set to LINT on the configure cmd line
+# also an Automake conditional
+# LINT_FLAGS: an Automake variable with appropriate flags
+#
+# --with-lint: 'yes' user instructs the module to use lint
+# 'no' user instructs the module not to use lint (default)
+#
+# If the user sets the value of LINT, AC_PATH_PROG skips testing the path.
+# If the user sets the value of LINT_FLAGS, they are used verbatim.
