For those of us who aren't ready to upgrade (I use emacs on a gentoo linux distribution, nothing unmasked) that diff should work. I don't know if this is the case, but it would seem that unhandled parameters to libtool may be a more general problem anyway. libtool behaves as if it should seamlessly front-end any uninstalled program that needs to be run, but bails out if parameter lists are not ordered to its liking. One would expect a command line like <target> <options> to always be invoked alternately as libtool <target> <options> but clearly this didn't work with emacs-21.3. Could libtool handle situations where the frontend is improperly mangled: libtool <options> <target> such that it would better handle bad behavior? libtool <libtool-specific-options> <target> <other unknown options> <properly appended options> to reduce the likelihood of errors we see with emacs-21.3? At the very least, it couldn't make things worse, could it? _______________________________________________ Libtool mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/libtool
