So then the build process for trunk is basically broken for non-Linux systems?

Err... I'm confused then. If the whole point of libtool is to handle
libraries portably, why are duplicating the job of something already
installed? (Obviously, if libtool *isn't* installed already, that's a
different problem.)
But, if there's a need to use our own libtool, and specifically to
create ltmain.sh, then we should do that properly. So far as I can
tell, this is not happening, and is a bug. I notice that two
different ltmain.sh files were removed from SVN in r1066. The one in
libmetrics/ is what is causing this build failure.

I have that already, actually. My full configure invocation is:
./configure \
CC='ccache gcc' CXX='ccache g++' \
CFLAGS='-O2 -I/usr/local/include -I/usr/X11R6/include' \
LDFLAGS='-L/usr/local/lib -L/usr/X11R6/lib -lintl -liconv' \
--with-gmetad --enable-status \
--with-libapr=/usr/local \
--with-libconfuse=/usr/local \
--with-libexpat=/usr/local \
--with-librrd=/usr/local \
--prefix=/home/jbecker/Ganglia/install/
I have to add "-lintl" and "-liconv" to LDFLAGS for configure to succeed.

Using 4.1 here, using the official packages for libconfuse, libiconv,
and gettext.
