That's a macro for complex log operations. You want the floating point
version from bits/math-finite.h (included by math.h).

Try compiling the log10 test autoconf uses yourself. It should be something
simple like:

    char log10();
    
    int main(int argc, char **argv)
    {
    	return log10();
    }

Then compile it with -lm and note any errors (you may get a warning about
redefining a built-in but this is just to test that the symbol can be
found).

Bryn.
