In making this decision, we must consider what existing Automake
does. If it searches for installed libtool by looking for a 'libtool'
program in the path, then there will be problems.

Automake uses libtool the way it was designed to be used, namely, using the script created by the configure script of the package being built.

I was thinking about how configure often searches for autoconf and automake in order to maintain the package. I guess it does not search for libtool since libtool files are not automatically maintained.
