That was my original plan. Unfortunately, Apple OS/X was the next system I tried, and its default libtool is not GNU libtool, and takes much different arguments. I'm not sure why they made that decision, which seems a bit perverse. Though I could potentially work around that (GNU libtool is available as glibtool) I decided it was best to take the advice in the manual that it was safer to distribute libtool with your project, to assure getting the right version. That in turn led to libtoolize, and the problem above. So I'm in the process of learning autoconf.
