Yes.  I was being very sloppy; sorry.  What I _meant_ to say was:
we fixed that, libtoolize is now called only once, and correctly
as such, and it should remain that way, and there need not be any
hint to aclocal's dirlist file.  The only better hint we could
give could be to tell CVS users that they definitely need a
version of libtool newer than 1.9b, possibly an unreleased CVS
version.
