I tried to use the latest CVS version of autoconf with the
current CVS version of libtool, and it looks like something
got broken.
libtool ml branch with autoconf from the 25th.
cd libtool
./bootstrap

(The ./configure generated does not run, but at least it generated
the file).
libtool bootstrap with current CVS version of autoconf.

It goes one like that and does not generate a working ./configure.
