Rather than libtool, the problem is "what do we want to do", that is, what is the right way of packaging this. Once we know that, libtool is just a tool that may or may not do the job. However, autotools and libtool are taking care of so many tricky issues that I'd rather avoid giving up with them and do everything by hand: that everything risks being a crazy big lot of headaches.
