+# 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.
