So, I dug my old g3 tower out of the closet, started it up and ran the libtool testsuite (I wanted to see what failed currently before trying a patch to see what failed after it).
There are a number of failures related to the older autotools in the default install of 10.2.8. (autoconf-2.52, automake-1.6.1) Test 28 fails because autoconf-2.52 does not grok --force. "autoconf: invalid option --force" Tests 46, 47 and 48 fail because autoconf-2.52 does not have AC_CONFIG_MACRO_DIR: "./configure: line 894: syntax error near unexpected token `LT_CONFIG_LTDL_DIR(ltdl,'" Tests 05,29,30,31,39,40,41,43,44,45,46,47,48,52 and 53 fail because "aclocal: macro `_LT_CHECK_BUILDDIR' required but not defined" Looks like _LT_CHECK_BUILDDIR is m4_defun'ed but AC_REQUIRED. Should we skip 28,46,47 and 48 if autoconf is too old, and m4_require _LT_CHECK_BUILDDIR?
