You currently need GNU make to build the Libtool package itself.

On AIX there are two different styles of shared linking, one where symbols
|
|
are bound at link-time and one where symbols are bound at runtime only,
|
|
similar to ELF@. In case of doubt use @code{LDFLAGS=-Wl,-brtl} for the latter style.

On AIX, native tools are to be preferred over binutils; especially for C++ code,
|
|
if using the AIX Toolbox GCC 4.0 and binutils, configure with
|
|
@code{AR=/usr/bin/ar LD=/usr/bin/ld NM='/usr/bin/nm -B'}.
|

On AIX, the @command{/bin/sh} is very slow due to its inefficient handling
|
|
of here-documents. A modern shell is preferable:
|
|
@example
|
|
CONFIG_SHELL=/bin/bash; export $CONFIG_SHELL
|
|
$CONFIG_SHELL ./configure [...]
|
|
@end example

For C++ code with templates, it may be necessary to specify the way the compiler
|
|
will generate the instantiations. For Portland pgCC version5, use
|
|
@code{CXX='pgCC --one_instantiation_per_object'} and avoid parallel @command{make}.
|

On Darwin, for C++ code with templates you need two level shared libraries.
|
|
Libtool builds these by default if @env{MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET} is set to
|
|
10.3 or later at @command{configure} time. See @url{rdar://problem/4135857}
|
|
for more information on this issue.

@c FreeBSD @command{make} does not conform to @sc{posix} in its handling
|
|
@c of file modification times, which causes it to loop while building libtool.
|
|
@c Consider using a different @command{such} as GNU make instead.

The default shell on UNICOS 9, a ksh 88e variant, is too buggy to
|
|
correctly execute the libtool script. Users are advised to install a
|
|
modern shell such as GNU bash.
|

|
|
@item
|
|
Some HP-UX @command{sed} programs are horribly broken, and cannot handle
|
|
libtool's requirements, so users may report unusual problems. There
|
|
is no workaround except to install a working @command{sed} (such as GNU sed)
|
|
on these systems.

The vendor-distributed NCR MP-RAS @command{cc} programs emits copyright
|
|
on standard error that confuse tests on size of @file{conftest.err}. The
|
|
workaround is to specify @env{CC} when run configure with
|
|
@code{CC='cc -Hnocopyr'}.

Any earlier DG/UX system with ELF executables, such as R3.10 or
|
|
R4.10, is also likely to work, but hasn't been explicitly tested.

On Reliant Unix libtool has only been tested with the Siemens C-compiler
|
|
and an old version of @command{gcc} provided by Marco Walther.

@file{libtool.m4}, @file{ltdl.m4} and the @file{configure.ac} files are marked
|
|
to use autoconf-mode, which is distributed with GNU Emacs 21, Autoconf itself,
|
|
and all recent releases of XEmacs.

When building on some GNU/Linux systems for multilib targets
|
|
@command{libtool} sometimes guesses the wrong paths that the linker
|
|
and dynamic linker search by default. If this occurs, you may override
|
|
libtool's guesses at @command{configure} time by setting the
|
|
@command{autoconf} cache variables
|
|
@code{lt_cv_sys_lib_search_path_spec} and
|
|
@code{lt_cv_sys_lib_dlsearch_path_spec} respectively to the correct search
|
|
paths.
