I'm wondering if the RPATH test is needed at all. Libtool knows how to

We need to detect whether the library exists and is linkable, so that

The only problem is an inconsistency between the configure script

That's an internal implementation detail. I think we shouldn't care as

I was reminded why this won't work. Because libtool simply
I am having a problem doing a recursive get from a web page. The issue is
that the link it downloads happens to have a date in it. It is obviously
formated like 5/28/01. The problem is that wget saves the file out and the
shell assumes that the / in the date is a new directory. Now I've
