-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 CVS head of m4 currently has a macro, ltdl/m4/debug.m4, that attempts to alter compile-time flags according to whether --enable-debug is passed to ./configure. However, it uses AC_DISABLE_SHARED and AC_ENABLE_SHARED inside a shell if-then-else to enforce this decision, and autoupdate reports that both macors are obsolete and should now be done by LT_INIT. Hmm, AC_ENABLE_SHARED and its replacement of the parameter 'shared' to LT_INIT aren't even mentioned in libtool.texi.
Is it safe to call LT_INIT more than once, in order to conditionally change what libtool's defaults should be according to the outcome of an AC_ARG_ENABLE? Or is it safe to pass a shell variable instead of a literal as the argument to LT_INIT? Also, m4 uses the obsolete AC_LIBTOOL_COMPILER_OPTION in one place, and its replacement _LT_COMPILER_OPTION in another. Any chance that we can document and make this macro public, so that m4 isn't relying on undocumented internals of libtool? - -- Life is short - so eat dessert first!
