branch-1-5: root-owned libtool files in build tree after relink

[Ralf Wildenhues]

Hi Thorsten, Marc, others,

I noted a work-around in the MirBSD port of Libtool for root-created
leftovers in .libs after a `make install' which requires relinking,
namely this patch (which is part of a larger patch), with this ID:

The patch is wrong.  It is also a minor security issue, because you
allow other members of your group to write to files you read later
(Usually, that turns out to be a non-issue with root:root).

Could you confirm that this patch below fixes the issue instead?

Thanks,
Ralf

        * ltmain.in: When a library is installed, dependent on a
        convenience library, and it involves relinking, the object
        files extracted from the convenience library are not removed
        after the relink. This is a problem if you build as non-root,
        install as root, then try to remove the build directory as
        non-root; Clean up properly if relink fails; Change
        "$realname"U to ${realname}T to be consistent.
