We have ltmain.sh in our cvs. It is from an old libtool and not compatible with newer libtools. Specifically the shared_ext is not defined so we end up generating libraries without the .so extension. A simple rm ltmain.sh && libtoolize --force fixes it, but is there anything stopping us from either shipping a newer ltmain.sh (it seems to be backward compatible) or not shipping one at all and doing a libtoolize --force from buildconf?

    Actually we should always be using the generated libtool, whatever
    libtool you might have installed. The reason to bundle libtool is to
    have one variable out of the equation with different build environments, IMO.

    Exactly how do you get the problem with shared_ext..?
