Hi!

I have some strange build problems with GNU pth-1.4.0.

It seems to be caused by a combination of GNU make / GNU libtool and the
pth-provided 'shutil' script.

What happens is, the 

        @umask 022; $(LIBTOOL) --mode=install \
        $(SHTOOL) install -c libpth.la $(DESTDIR)$(libdir)/libpth.la

seems to get expanded (by make) to:

        ./shtool /usr/bin/install -c libpth.la ....

so instead of giving the 'install' parameter to shtool, it expands this
to the full path of the install command on my system.

I've got it working by deleting the '$(SHTOOL)' in the beginning of the 
line and thereby using the system-wide installed install. anyway, that
is a workaround and not a fix.

I'm running:

conectiva linux 6.5, containing

GNU fileutils 4.0 (/usr/bin/install)
GNU make 3.79.1
GNU libtool 1.3.5
