Hi,

when creating executables with libtool in a way, that a wrapper script is
necessary, the relink-command looks like (short part of it):
relink_command="cd /bi
... LD_RUN_PATH=\"\\\"X\\\"\"; ... PATH=\"\\\"X/usr/local/bin:/usr/bi ..."

Note the "X"s and the doubled \" which shouldn't be there. E.g. for my
system g++ is in /usr/local/bin, but as PATH contains "X/usr/local/bin"
the compiler isn't found when running the wrapper script.

The reason is the loop cycling through all to-be-saved environment vars,
in two places. The diff below fixes it. A quick scan through all uses of
Xsed revealed two other places which look strange (or better not the way
all the others look):
 eval shlib_search_path=\`\$echo \"X \${$shlibpath_var}\" \| ...
and
 if $echo "X $deplibs" | $Xsed -e 's/ -lc$//' \

Note the space between X and $. (simply search for "X ") It should be OK,
but for consistency...


Ciao,
Michael.
