Of the suggestions offered, this one worked in the following literal entry 
into src/Makefile.am:

geodesic_LDADD = -lproject -lm

Ordering may not make any difference but I am too tired of the problem to

Many thanks.

PS: I always seem to have trouble with the *_CHECK_*  and *_SEARCH_* of 
configure.ac.

Again, many thanks.
