You're a developer!  You have autoconf and automake installed why not
libtool as well?  I think Lars has been been spoiling you.

Why do we need libtool in the repository?  Sure it's got to be included in
the dist but it doesn't need to be in the repository for that to happen.

I've been taking another look at libsigc++'s configure.in and might talk
to Karl about splitting some of its tests up into a separate
sigcinclude.m4 for libsigc++.  That would then allow us to eliminate
sigc++/configure.in.  And we wouldn't need the duplication of libtools
etc.

Exactly.
