Hi Gary,

this isn't a full review, I'm just adding a couple of hints that come to
mind at first glance.

Consistent naming seems like a good idea, however I'll note that while
8.3 file systems with cutoff policy allow to distinguish between
'libtoolize' and 'libtoolize.tmp', they don't do so for 'libtoolize'
and 'libtoolizeT'.

I normally wouldn't say we still need to really care about this much any
more, but we've had some DJGPP fixes in Autoconf and Automake a few
months ago due to bug reports.

Oh well, dunno if that's relevant.
