According to the thread below, libtool displays somewhat broken behavior
on Cygwin when /bin/file is not present. Since 'file' is a package of
its own and not in the Devel category it might be easy for a user to
overlook selecting it. It would probably be best if 'file' were added
to the 'requires' line of the libtool packages so that it's
automatically installed.

But the setup.hint for libtool1.5 (which is the ONLY non-obsolete
libtool package, other than libltdl3) already lists 'file' as one of its
dependencies?
See the message I posted on the libtool list (hasn't shown up in the
archives yet, but it's a reply to this one):
