Libtool ...
automatically implies
Something is very fscked up
I have had no end of bad luck, and very little good luck, with libtool. Not to mention that its use (at least in stock 1.4.3) breaks paradigms like 'make install DESTDIR=blah' But this is gcc list, not a libtool list, so I will just wish you good luck and my condolences go out to you. Debugging libtool can be extremely painful. Kean
