Thanks for the ack, but the credits should go to Henning. He did put
me on this track and I used his patch as example.
Couldn't have done it alone, being the auto* and libtool n00b that I am.
It was solely because I could stand on the shoulders of a giant, that
I could produce this.

BTW: the following recipes seem good candidates for doing the same
sort of patch:
./binutils/binutils-2.20.1/libtool-2.4-update.patch
./gnuradio/gnuradio/libusb-libtool-2.4-update.patch
./libsdl/libsdl-x11-1.2.14/libtool-update.patch

I would prefer it if the recipe maintainer gives this a stab.

BTW, maybe a better solution would be do do this in autotools (we also
discussed this in irc) and allow for aon overridable directory
variable (with default value m4)
I feel not comfortable enough to author such a patch though.
Note also that gnutls has three dirs with generated m4 files.
