Ah-ha! For some reason your /bin/sh doesn't support += and my Solaris 10 machine's /bin/sh does (maybe we have some peculiar links set up to save tripping over things while package building or something?), and when the test tries to find the += enhanced func_append, the sed expression fails and ends up splicing the whole of libtool into the test :-o I've added a skip to cover that case in the last commit. Thanks for the report! Cheers, -- Gary V. Vaughan (g...@gnu.org)
