It appears that older automakes than 1.4p1 have problems coping with
newer libtools. The problem is that you don't want an old version of
ltconfig used with newer ltmain.sh. I imagine that this is a developer
concern and not a release build problem in that autogen.sh is only used
by developers and the release builder will already have all the proper
files generated before they receive the source.
