Hi Josh, There are speedups for link mode, I don't think you will see much of an improvement for compile mode over 1.5.26, but I do not have numbers to back that up. Splitting off libtool compile might be worthwhile, but there should be no need for: AC_MSG_CHECKING([if libtool sucks]) AC_MSG_RESULT([yup, it does]) :-) Or to restrict the shell, compiler and OS to bash, gcc and GNU/linux. It should be possible to have a portable (at least a more portable than this) ltcompile script. Are you willing to work on libtool to improve its performance for compile mode? If so, we can send you copyright assignment forms etc. Peter -- Peter O'Gorman http://pogma.com _______________________________________________ http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/libtool
