(libtool script contents): and one more.
* 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.
* ltmain.in (impgen.c): define O_BINARY to 0 if it is not in the
system headers.
AC_CHECK_TOOL in AC_LIBTOOL_SETUP.
* libtool.m4 (AC_PROG_LIBTOOL): Pass the $build variable to
ltconfig.
(AC_PROG_RANLIB): replaced with AC_CHECK_TOOL.
* ltconfig.in (build): new variable to hold the build triplet
which is now checked for unless --no-verify is specified.
(--build): new argument to set the build triplet.
(ranlib): Prefer ${host_alias}-ranlib[.exe] if $build is different
to $host.
* doc/libtool.texi (Invoking ltconfig): Document --build option.
* NEWS: Note --build option.
* libtool.m4 (AC_PROG_LIBTOOL): added --with-pic flag
* ltconfig.in: new pic_mode variable and --prefer[-non]-pic flags,
fixed the strip check (reported by Keith Bostic <bostic@bostic.com>)
* ltmain.in (compile mode): build only PIC/non-PIC code depending
on pic_mode
* libltdl/README: document the supported dlopen interfaces
* doc/libtool.texi (tests): documented new tests
* tests/Makefile.am: added new tests
* tests/demo-pic.test: new test to test --with-pic
* tests/demo-nopic.test: new test to test --without-pic
* tests/build-relink2.test: variant of build-relink.test that
uses depdemo
* doc/PLATFORMS: 1.3b passes all tests on GNU/Linux,
FreeBSD (2.2.6 and 3.1)
* doc/libtool.texi: it's possible to link libtool libraries
using -L and -l, better documentation of uninstall and clean mode,
rename dummy to force, documented -no-fast-install,
AC_LIBLTDL_* must be called before AC_PROG_LIBTOOL,
documented hardcode_into_libs and striplib/old_striplib,
* ltconfig.in: search for strip program, added hardcode_into_libs
and striplib/old_striplib variables, set strip commands for GNU strip,
on FreeBSD >= 3.2 set hardcode_into_libs to yes,
fast-install mode doesn't work if hardcode_into_libs = yes
* ltmain.in: reimplemented hardcoding into libraries:
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
an extracted and compiled ltdll.c, then don't delete, reextract
and recompile.
(cygwin, archive_expsym_cmds): Make sure the ltdll source has been
extracted and compiled before referencing the object, since there
are paths through the code which run archive_expsym_cmds without
running export_symbols_cmds.
regex (reported by Chris P. Ross <cross@eng.us.uu.net>)
* ltmain.in: support `-dlopen self', define lt_preloaded_symbols
if dlself != no
* doc/libtool.texi (Compile and Link mode): document it,
documented the -Wc, -Wl flags, libtool does also support non C
source code
* ltconfig.in: CR/LF fix for broken DJGPP bash
* ltmain.in: CR/LF fix for DJGPP
fail if it is unable to physically load the library. Sadly,
LoadLibrary will search the loaded libraries for a match and
return one of them if the path search load fails. Simulate a
failure in this case for compatibility with the other APIs.
Also, LoadLibrary takes the liberty of adding `.dll' to library
names passed without an extension, we now add a trailing `.' to
prevent this from happening.
decided that LoadLibrary returns `0' for success, yet FreeLibrary
returns `0' for failure! The FreeLibrary call used to interpret
`0' as success for both functions.
retain the order of dependency libraries (even old archives),
determining the absolute directory name didn't work due to a typo,
add the library search paths of all dependency libraries when
linking a library (fixes IRIX 5.2 bug)
is no longer needed, as ld reverted to the original format.
* NEWS: Likewise.
* ltconfig.in: When testing self-dlopening, test whether dlclose
crashes. On FreeBSD 3.1, it does. :-(
* libltdl/configure.in: Likewise.
* NEWS: Note work-around.

no extension, and we must do the same in order to share the cache
value. Also we must ignore conftest.err which HPsUX (at least)
fills with gratuitous warnings.
(objext): for consistency, do the same as above.
