how to cancel check for gcc?
i believe it's in configure.in file.
If you want to specify a compiler, other than the one configure
finds when left to its own devices, just invoke configure like this:
$ ./configure CC=xlc

The workaround in this case is easy. Just omit the outer quotes and
remove the inner backslashes:
output_verbose_link_cmd=`$echo X$output_verbose_link_cmd

\$no_glob_subst\`
(setting set +o posix in configure for the benefit of ksh fixes things too.)
Does ksh have a way to detect itself programatically so that libtool can add
something of the form:
test -z $KSH_VERSION || set +o posix

This is causing real problems for my m4 bootstrap, which currently
has to call libtoolize by hand before calling autoreconf (which
then calls it again with no effect after aclocal).

AC_CONFIG_MACRO_DIR if none is set in the subpackage's
configure.ac.)
That is autoconf simply tracking back up the tree looking for install-sh
if AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR is not set in the subpackage. Libtool doesn't do
anything special for either.
HTH,

Agreed. Autoconf generates a config.h that encourages #ifdef/#ifndef.
And then it promotes the use of #if. I recall discussions about

Removing the returns isn't too hard, but if my other assumptions are bad, then

LT_ALPHA=`echo AC_PACKAGE_VERSION | sed ['s,^[0-9.]*,,']`
Note the lack of $AC_PACKAGE_VERSION, AC_PACKAGE_VERSION is an m4 macro!
After this you could add, say:
VERSION=$LT_MAJOR.$LT_MINOR.$LT_MICRO
