Gary V. Vaughan f7356d2f61 Sweeping changes to the user interface to libtool from
`configure.ac' to be more like AC_INIT and accept a space
delimited list of options.  Instead of calling `AC_LIBTOOL_DLOPEN;
AC_PROG_LIBTOOL', we now recommend `LT_INIT([dlopen])':

* m4/libtool.m4	(AC_PROG_LIBTOOL, _AC_PROG_LIBTOOL)
(AC_LIBTOOL_SETUP): Removed.  Added AU_DEFUNs.
(LT_INIT): Replace with an Autoconf like interface which accepts a
version number as a minimum required libtool release at configure
time.
* m4/ltoptions.m4: New file inspired by automake/m4/amoptions.m4,
which additionally flags an error if the configuring libtool
macros are not new enough according to LT_INIT.
(LT_OPTION_DEFINE): New macro to declare option handlers.
(dlopen, win32-dll, shared, disable-shared, static)
(disable-static, fast-install, disable-fast-install, pic-only)
(no-pic): Newly LT_OPTION_DEFINEd option handlers that use...
(_LT_ENABLE_SHARED, _LT_ENABLE_STATIC, _LT_ENABLE_FAST_INSTALL)
(_LT_WITH_PIC, _LT_WIN32_DLL): New macros to handle
LT_LIBTOOL_INIT options...
* m4/libtool.m4 (AC_ENABLE_SHARED, AC_ENABLE_STATIC)
(AC_ENABLE_FAST_INSTALL, AC_LIBTOOL_DLOPEN, AC_LIBTOOL_WIN32_DLL):
...to replace these user interface macros, now defined as
AU_DEFUNs.
(AC_DISABLE_SHARED, AC_DISABLE_STATIC, AC_DISABLE_FAST_INSTALL):
Removed.  No longer required with LT_INIT_LIBTOOL interface.
Added AU_DEFUNs.
(AM_ENABLE_SHARED, AM_DISABLE_SHARED, AM_ENABLE_STATIC)
(AM_DISABLE_STATIC): Changed AU_DEFUNs to match new interface.
(_LT_SETUP): Internal to LT_INIT, replaces AC_LIBTOOL_SETUP.
* m4/lt~obsolete.m4 (AC_LIBTOOL_SETUP, _AC_PROG_LIBTOOL)
(_LT_PROG_LTMAIN):  More AC_DEFUNs that have been retracted.
* configure.ac: Use new interface.
* doc/libtool.texi: Document new interface.
* NEWS: Updated.
