Sure.

Wow! You were determined, huh? Actually if you follow the recipe
I outlined in the last mail, you don't need that macro. I should have
been clearer that it was an either/or. Sorry.

Oops. Careless cut and paste. You do indeed need that "`" at the end.
I also missed a double quote from tyhe first line, and the X in the
echo command. Try this instead (I have double checked for correctness
this time):
Xsed="sed -e s/^X//"
LTLIBOBJS=`echo X"$LIBOBJS" | \
[$Xsed -e "s,\.[^.]* ,.lo ,g;s,\.[^.]*$,.lo,"]`
AC_SUBST(LTLIBOBJS)

It isn't. You should end up with something along the lines of:
LTLIBOBJS = getopt.lo getopt1.lo

Probably the stuff I misquoted from the book. If it still doesn;t
work, try it by hand from your shell prompt. For example, this is
what I get:
$ echo X"getopt.o getopt1.o" |
> sed -e s/^X// -e "s,\.[^.]* ,.lo ,g;s,\.[^.]*$,.lo,"
getopt.lo getopt1.lo

No worries,
Gary.
