Set hardcode_into_libs=yes for FreeBSD 3.0 and 3.1
* ltmain.in: enable workaround for freebsdelf3.0
* ltconfig.in: export_dynamic_flag_spec is -rdynamic on BSD/OS
* libtool.m4 (mingw32, AC_LIBTOOL_SETUP): probe for -mdll vs -dll
under cygwin/mingw.
probe whether the cygwin/mingw library supplies a stub DllMain
(but this information isn't yet used).
* ltconfig.in (mingw32, extract_expsyms_cmds): if HOST_CC is set,
use that to build impgen so we can use it when cross-compiling.
use correct entry points for mingw so static C++ constructors get
called for code in the DLL.

new relink mode, preserve all libtool args, relink libraries
when installing if necessary
added -no-fast-install flag, removed unnecessary `dlname'
initialization, use striplib/old_striplib for stripping libraries,
dlname is always soname or in library_names so we don't need
to handle different file names
is no longer needed, as ld reverted to the original format.

crashes. On FreeBSD 3.1, it does. :-(

strip libraries using GNU strip if it's available and the
-s flag was passed to "install"
* TODO: -Wc, -Wl, implemented
* AUTHORS: changed my email address

4.3.2.0 no longer fails on static dlopening. GNU DLD no longer
has to support .la files, since libltdl already does. Convenience
libraries and reloadable objects should be tested in the
testsuite. We could support some amount of control on the soname
of libraries.
* doc/libtool.texi: Notes about convenience libraries and
automake. Documented INCLTDL.
ltconfig if this is set.
(AC_LIBTOOL_WIN32_DLL): New macro required for libtool to attempt
a dll build on win32 hosts.
* ltconfig.in (--enable-win32-dll): new flag for the cli.

always use output_objdir instead of objdir for temporary files,
delete generated temporary symbol lists,
don't add .la twice in the pseudo-library header,
implemented and documented clean mode (deletes libraries,
programs and object files and the files associated with them),
if build_libtool_libs=no and no static library is available,
try to link the program against the shared library,
don't add a statically linked library to the dependency_libs
* ltmain.in (help uninstall): added a missing backslash
after echo (reported by Ossama Othman)
* doc/libtool.texi: removed hardcode_into_libs documentation

* ltconfig.in: ditto, reverted one of my previous patches: we need
to check for NM, removed the hardcode_into_libs support since
no platform seems to support it
* ltmain.in: some DJGPP fixes, removed the hardcode_into_libs support
* libtool.m4: check for main in libm instead of cos
* ltmain.in: cosmetic fixes, don't try to link libraries only once
(although it's not necessary on many platforms and looks ugly...),
* libtoolize.in: add the libtool scripts to libltdl.tar.gz
* libtool.m4: don't AC_SUBST(USE_SYMBOL_UNDERSCORE),
AC_CHECK_LIBM sets LIBM, AC_LIBLTDL_INSTALLABLE doesn't work
when libltdl is already installed

* *demo/configure.in: AC_SUBST LIBM
* libltdl/configure.in: use ac_cv_sys_symbol_underscore instead of
USE_SYMBOL_UNDERSCORE

when linking libraries against static ones just print a warning
and add them to dependency_libs, add -lc before deplibs,
always link all dependencies of a static library or if
link_all_deplibs is yes, hardcode library paths if
hardcode_into_libs is no, don't link against dependency_libs
that already are deplibs
* README: updated (BeOS support, no longer shared libraries
support for AmigaOS), cleanups, we have now two mailing lists
* REAMDE-alpha: autogen -> bootstrap, we have now two mailing lists
* THANKS: added Xavier Pianet
* doc/PLATFORMS: BeOS works
* doc/libtool.texi: we have now to two mailing lists,

are now documented

cannot_close_error), use them where approriate,
BeOS support (thanks to Xavier Pianet), on BeOS search modules
additionally in ADDON_PATH

* depdemo/*: new demo to demonstrate inter-library dependencies
* tests/depdemo*: new tests for depdemo
* ltconfig.in: added hardcode_into_libs (whether library paths
should be hardcoded into the libraries),
it currently defaults to 'no'
* ltmain.in: new internal 'relink' mode to relink libraries
on platforms with hardcode_into_libs=yes, save command line
arguments in libtool_args, accept relative -L directories,
ignore -lm on BeOS and Cygwin, always ignore -lc,
handle -l, -L and .la arguments later, always make the library
installation directory (-rpath) absolute, in relink mode don't
delete the not-relinked library and exit immediately after relinking,
try to find already-installed libtool libraries that were specified
using -l, support hardcoding of library paths into libraries too,
export shlibpath before linking libraries, and a lot of other
big changes that I don't want to describe here... please read
the source.
* merged Gary's Win32 code from the ILD branch:
* NEWS: Win32 DLLs are now supported
* TODO: removed .a library namespace clash for win32. It is
now resolved.
* ltconfig.in (cygwin, library_names_spec): removed $libname.a.
Creating a dll with libtool no longer creates an import library.
* ltconfig.in (extract_expsyms_cmds): Create $objdir if it does
not exist -- i.e. we need to generate import an import library
in a directory which has no libs of its own.
* doc/libtool.texi (old_archive_from_expsyms_cmds,
extract_expsyms_cmds): documented these new variables.
* ltconfig.in (extract_expsyms_cmds): New variable. Commands to
extract the exported symbol list from a dll.
(old_archive_from_expsyms_cmds): New variable. Commands to build
an old archive from the extracted expsyms list.
* ltmain.in: run the cmds in extract_expsyms_cmds and
old_archive_from_expsyms_cmds as necessary.
* ltconfig.in (cygwin, old_archive_from_new_cmds): no longer
required.
* ltconfig.in (cygwin, shlibpath_overrides_runpath): I'm not even
sure whether win32 honours the runpath at all when searching for
a dll to load! Anyway, when set to yes this prevents a gratuitous
warning.
* ltmain.in (deplib): The cygwin environment doesn't actually have
-lm, and although the linker fakes having one, specifiying it to
libtool will break ILD, so we ignore it when generating
dependencies.
lists the system *run-time* search path. Listed directories are
not implicitly hard-coded into executables.
* ltmain.in: use it, but *never* discard -R flags
* doc/libtool.texi: document it
* NEWS: ditto
