Ah, I see.  Can you try a rebuild, but add --enable-shared --with-gnu-ld
to the ./configure line?  Using system libtool should work around these
issues, if it is told that it needs to build shared libraries (I think).

I agree that the whole thing needs to be relibtoolized (and the whole
auto-* stuff needs to be redone as well), but this so far hasn't worked
reliably, which is why we're using this workaround.

Thanks,
