Robert Collins' version is hacked to use the auto-import capabilities of
newer binutils. No __declspec(dll[im? ex?]port) worries.
But it's a fork from the official version. Eventually this will get folded
back into the "real" libtool.

Dunno.

Probably.

We're waiting for:
1) the new setup (check!)
2) the end of the no-new-packages moratorium (check!)
3) the autoconf 2.13/2.52 automake 1.4p5/1.5 harmonization
3a) -src packaging standard...see cgywin-apps@ over the last week
4) Gary Vaughan (GNU libtool maintainer) to fold Robert's changes into the
"real" libtool
#4 is going to take some time, because Gary's got a new book coming out so
time is at a premium. Therefore, there's little hurry for #3, but we're
a-workin' on it.
