libtool 1.4 bug

[Danny Backx]

Hi,

The attached file contains excerpts of the LessTif build process.
We think a libtool bug may be the cause of our build problems.

You'll see in the "make install" command that libtool wants to relink
libMrm.la. In the next command I've added a "-n" flag to that libtool
invocation so we can see which gcc command is given.

The gcc command itself fails because it doesn't get the right
library (../Xm-2.1/libXm.la which is not installed yet so this
should become
/usr/src/packages/BUILD/lesstif-0.92.32/lib/Xm-2.1/.libs/libXm.so.2.0.1)
passed to it.

I've attached libXm.la as well.

Please help, this currently prevents us from doing our release process
in a decent way. (I've looked inside the libtool sources but it appears
to take a LOT of learning time before I can start to debug this.)

        Danny
