I believe the author of the script wanted to do just that, but felt he had headwinds. Now, it's too late as he can't do open source development anymore. (Employer requirements.) I use the libtool bootstrap for a couple of my projects and I, too, think it would be good to merge it back into gnulib. I have no employer requirements anymore, but I have my own projects on the table, so gnulib patch delivery time might get measured in weeks. _______________________________________________ https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/libtool
