Ah, ok, you've got a legitimate case here, then. We had been wondering
whether not expanding ECHO any more would be problematic for packages.
Unfortunately, that seems to be the case, although the libtool-computed
value for formerly ECHO, now lt_ECHO, is not strictly usable outside of
the ltmain.sh script or the configure script, as on really old systems
it may expand to something like "$0 --fallback-echo ...".
In this particular case above, plain 'echo' should suffice.
Cheers,
Ralf
