I like to name temporary directories that I will remove shortly

To safely use a non-literal first argument to `test', you must
always prepend a literal non-`-' character, but often the second
operand is a constant that doesn't begin with a `-' already, so
always use `test a = "$b"' instead of noisy `test "X$b" = Xa'.

At some point we were supporting some undetermined `broken
make', as evidenced by having carried the following code since
2003:
## use @LIBLTDL@ because some broken makes do not accept
## macros in targets, we can only do this because our LIBLTDL
## does not contain $(top_builddir).
@LIBLTDL@: $(top_distdir)/libtool \
...
However, we've also had *many* cases of macros in targets for
just as long, so most likely we never fully supported makes
allegedly broken in this way. As of this release, we explicitly
no longer support make implementations that do not accept macros
in targets.

In addition to moving the autoconf auxiliary script directory
into the place expected by GNU developers ($top_srcdir/build-aux)
we also simplify libtoolize somewhat by having libltdl use
whatever directory was specified by the parent project. This is
much more flexible, allows libltdl client projects to also use a
single canonical `$top_srcdir/build-aux' auxiliary script
directory, and maintains backward compatibility with existing
projects that wish to continue using $ltdl_dir/config.
