Moreover, it might be a bit aggressive to package the liburcu tarballs with an alpha version of libtool. When we understand more about the need for one or two specific entries into the configure.ac of liburcu, then we can add them, but until there is a stable version of libtool supporting those, you will probably have to create your own tarballs from the userspace RCU git repository using "make dist" against your alpha libtool. Thoughts ?
