* m4/libtool.m4 (_LT_CMD_STRIPLIB): Remove the redundant tests for
empty $old_striplib and $striplib. Move the test for empty $STRIP
variable up. Allow elftoolchain strip (with the same arguments we
used to have with GNU strip) on FreeBSD.
TLS symbols in AIX display a new, different symbol type in nm output.
Libtool explicitly creates a list of exported symbols for AIX shared
libraries using nm and does not recognize the new TLS symbols, so
those symbols are not exported in AIX shared libraries.
This is a regression for TLS support on AIX where TLS symbols or GCC
"emultls" symbols were listed as global data and exported.
This patch updates libtool.m4 export_symbols_cmds for AIX in two
locations so that global symbols labeled with "L" for TLS are included
in the export list.
* m4/libtool.m4 (export_symbols_cmds) [AIX]: Add global TLS "L" symbols.

In some GNU/Linux distributions people started to compile 'ar'
binary with --enable-deterministic-archives (binutils project).
That, however, in combination with our previous long time working
default AR_FLAGS=cru causes warnings on such installations:
ar: `u' modifier ignored since `D' is the default (see `U')
The 'u' option (at least with GNU binutils) did small optimization
during repeated builds because it instructed 'ar' to not
open/close unchanged *.o files and to rather read their contents
from old archive file. However, its removal should not cause a
big performance hit for usual workflows.
Distributions started using --enable-deterministic-archives
knowing that it would disable the 'u', just to rather have a bit
more deterministic builds.
Also, to justify this change a bit more, keeping 'u' in ARFLAGS
could only result in many per-project changes to override
Libtool's ARFLAGS default, just to silent such warnings.
Fixes bug#19967. Reported by Eric Blake.
* m4/libtool.m4 (_LT_PROG_AR): Default AR_FLAGS to 'cr'.
(_LT_REQUIRED_DARWIN_CHECKS): Use $AR_FLAGS instead 'cru' string.
* doc/libtool.texi: Do 's/ar cru/ar cr/' in whole documentation.
* NEWS: Document.
Libtool has used $AR_FLAGS since 2000-05-29 commit
8300de4c54, Automake ARFLAGS since 2003-04-06 commit
a71b3490639831ca. Even though ARFLAGS is younger, it sounds like
better name according GNU Coding Standards.
Related to bug#20082.
* m4/libtool.m4 (_LT_PROG_AR): Copy ARFLAGS value into AR_FLAGS
variable if AR_FLAGS is not set. Add new _LT_DECL'ed variable
'lt_ar_flags' to keep the configure-time value of AR_FLAGS. The
new 'lt_ar_flags' is to be used as the default value for AR_FLAGS
at libtool-runtime.
* NEWS: Document.
Libtool generator code needs to remember the configure time
LT_SYS_LIBRARY_PATH content to allow config.status properly
instantiate default LT_SYS_LIBRARY_PATH libtool run-time value;

* m4/libtool.m4 (_LT_CONFIG): Use the _LT_DECLared

Revert 8728e07 and 440fee6.
Some GNU/Linux distributions install libraries into /lib64 (or
/usr/lib64) on 64-bit machines, while /lib (/usr/lib
respectively) stays for multilib variant. Other distributions
keep /usr/lib for 64-bit variant and reserve other directory for
multilib. Detection of what approach a given system uses is
difficult, however, especially because Glibc's ldconfig does not
report the full and correct list of search paths. Allow the user
to adjust Libtools heuristically determined search paths with
the new LT_SYS_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable at both
compile-time, when libtool is called, and at configure time.

Mark LT_SYS_LIBRARY_PATH as precious to autoconf (to survive

sys_lib_dlsearch_path_spec - this propagates results to
generated libtool script.

Support filename-based shared library versioning on AIX with the
lib.so library filename extension, which is used with runtime
linking only. Runtime linking is enabled by the -brtl linker
flag for executables and the -G linker flag for Shared Objects.
The behaviour is similar to Linux/SVR4 DT_SONAME, hence the name
"aix-soname=svr4".
* Makefile.am (TESTS_ENVIRONMENT): Pass with_aix_soname value
via lt_cv_with_aix_soname into testsuite.
* configure.ac: AC_SUBST with_aix_soname for testsuite.
* libltdl/loaders/dlopen.c (vm_open): Use RTLD_MEMBER flag for
dlopen when the filename does specify an archive member between
"()". Otherways, retry with appending LT_SHARED_LIB_MEMBER when
loading fails without but archive file seems to exist.
* m4/libtool.m4 (dynamic_linker): Describe configured shared
library versioning variant according to with_aix_soname and
runtime linking.
(soname_spec, library_names_spec, shlibpath_overrides_runpath)
(postinstall_cmds, postuninstall_cmds, hardcode_direct)
(hardcode_direct_absolute, no_undefined_flag)
(allow_undefined_flag): Set according to with_aix_soname and
runtime linking configuration.
(export_symbols_cmds): Decorate symbols with the weak keyword.
(archive_expsym_cmds): Create both shared libraries according to
with_aix_soname and runtime linking configuration. Filter -brtl
linker flag from compiler_flags for shared libraries due to its
side effects.
(enable_static): Respect with_aix_soname for disabling as well.
* m4/ltdl.m4 (LT_SHARED_LIB_MEMBER): Define, set based on the
value of the shared_archive_member_spec libtool variable.
* m4/ltoptions.m4 (_LT_WITH_AIX_SONAME): New. Provides
commandline option --with-aix-soname=aix|svr4|both. Declares
$shared_archive_member_spec as libtool variable.
(_LT_SET_OPTIONS): Define LT_INIT options "aix-soname=aix",
"aix-soname=svr4", "aix-soname=both". Default is
"aix-soname=aix".
* doc/libtool.texi (LT_INIT): Document new options.
* tests/deplibs-ident.at: To define whether this test should
XFAIL, use hardcode_action, hardcode_direct,
hardcode_direct_absolute configuration settings instead of
