Welcome to the wonderful world of autoconf!

If I recall correctly:
Because conftest.c doesn't include the .h file that declares strerror(),
and C doesn't have typesafe linkage, checking for the
presence of a function by linking to it with a totally bogus call
with no arguments should work fine.
It's not clear why the compiler is complaining -
did it somehow see a .h file that declared strerror()?
What compiler are you using?
