[gambit-list] Error from "make check" under MinGW build

Argggg...  Autoconf is causing problems.  It seems this isn't acceptable in configure.ac:

case "$target_os" in
  darwin*) AC_PROG_CC(i686-apple-darwin11-gcc-4.2.1 i686-apple-darwin10-gcc-4.2.1 clang gcc)
           ;;
        *) AC_PROG_CC
           ;;
esac

When target_os is not darwin the second branch of the case is not executed, so the C compiler doesn't get configured.

Anyone know how to do this properly?  I want the search list for C compilers to be different from the default on Mac OS X to avoid clang and LLVM gcc which misbehave when compiling Gambit (clang takes over an hour to compile Gambit, and LLVM gcc 4.2.1 has a code generation bug for label values).
