RE: mkdll.sh

["Harold Hunt" <huntharo at msu dot edu>]

Chuck,

Could you give a few more notes on "relibtoolize"?  A pointer to some good

Is the general idea here that I would just be working on the config files
and makefiles, rather than having to make extensive internal changes to the
way that libraries are loaded?
