- --ltdl-tar is already broken. Stage 2 should be to get them working with the new directory structure.
Stage 3 should be to figure out how to support automakeless environments.
Its a fairly big change conceptually, so I dare say that stages 4 through 13 will be to fix things that crawl out of the woodwork in the next couple of weeks.

I'll commit as is, and send a patch for re-enabling libtoolize's ltdl options along with updated documentation. I'm still convinced that --ltdl-tar is useless, and might drop that option if it proves time consuming to rework it.
Cheers,
Gary.
