ltmain.in in 1.4 has: # On Cygwin there's no "real" PIC flag so we must build both object types case $host_os in cygwin* | mingw* | pw32* | os2*) pic_mode=default ;; esac Taking a look at the generated libtool on Solaris 8/SPARC and AIX 4.3.2, $host_os is not defined anywhere. Is the above an error? Later on I see: # libtool link mode link | relink) modename="$modename: link" case $host in *-*-cygwin* | *-*-mingw* | *-*-pw32* | *-*-os2*) -- albert chin ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) _______________________________________________ Libtool mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/libtool
