Yeah, sorry about that. I lost my mail archive (along with the messages I
saved for later attention) in March when I fried my hard drive...

Oh yuck!
This is definitely the wrong approach. Could you try to find a way to fix
the test that discovers the correct value for lt_cv_archive_cmds_need_lc
(aound line 2158 in libtool.m4). If this is just a bug in SCO's linker,
maybe we just need to move your patch into this section of libtool.m4?
A fast reply improves your chances of getting the fix into libtool-1.4...
Cheers,
Gary.
