I dislike this, as long as they use libtool we should try to use it.

Are the fixes in the config.m4 file really needed?  Which of our
libraries are not available as static archive so they are not found?

I have a fix (cygwin-special) for the DBA / BDB4 issue.
I will try to figure out how to get all the shared modules with the
built-in methods (no automake & libtool).
