-Hi!
-
-I've just installed and tested libtool 1.2a on several platforms.  It
-worked beautifully and passed all tests on Solaris 2.[56] and RedHat
-Linux 4.0 and 5.0/x86 and 5.0/alpha.
-
-It failed to pass some tests on IRIX 5.2 and 6.3 because, although
-ltconfig detected that print was available on ksh only, it somehow
-tried to run print with sh in some situation.  I haven't investigated
-the problem any further, but I managed to fix it by defining echo as
-`/bin/ksh print -r'.  The attached patch caused libtool to pass all
-tests on both platforms.
-
-On SunOS 4.1.3 (with egcs 1.0.2 and GNU ld from binutils 2.9), libtool 
-1.2a failed to pass the following tests:
-
-FAIL: demo-exec.test
-FAIL: hardcode.test
-
-Running tests with VERBOSE=yes produced the following additional
-messages for these two tests:
-
-=== Running demo-exec.test
-Executing uninstalled programs in ../demo
-Welcome to GNU Hell!
-ld.so: open error 2 for .libs/libhello.so.3.12
-./demo-exec.test: cannot execute ../demo/hell
--dlopen is unsupported
-FAIL: demo-exec.test
-
-=== Running hardcode.test
-= Running make hardcode in ../demo
-make[4]: Entering directory `/l/dsk01/temp/install-libtool-1.2a-atibaia-15206/libtool-1.2a/demo'
-You may ignore any linking errors from the following command:

-rm -rf hc-libflag _hclibs
-mkdir _hclibs
-objdir=`sed -n -e 's/^objdir=\"\(.*\)\"$/\1/p' ./libtool`; cd _hclibs && for lib in ../$objdir/libhello*; do \
-  ln -s $lib `echo "$lib" | sed 's%^.*/%%'` || exit 1; \
-done

-You may ignore any linking errors from the following command:
-LD_LIBRARY_PATH=./.libs gcc  -o hc-libpath main.o -lhello -lm || echo unsupported > hc-libpath

-= Finding ltconfig's guesses at hardcoding values
-= Searching for hardcoded library directories in each program
-.libs was hardcoded in `hc-direct', which fooled libtool
-.libs was hardcoded in `hc-libflag', as libtool expected
-.libs was not hardcoded in `hc-libpath', which fooled libtool
-.libs was hardcoded in `hc-minusL', which fooled libtool
-FAIL: hardcode.test
-
-This must have something to do with SunOS's hard-coding of -L dirs
-into binary programs.  `ldd ../demo/.libs/hell', for example, prints:
-
-        .libs/libhello.so.3.12 (not found)
-        -lc.1 => /usr/lib/libc.so.1.8
-        -ldl.1 => /usr/lib/libdl.so.1.0
