Re: [PATCH] cygwin sharedlib build fixes, terminfo

[Charles Wilson]

FWIW, the attached patch, applied after the one I sent yesterday, 
enables a libtool-based build to work without any modifications to 
autoconf-20020210, or to libtool-1.5.

You just have to set 'CXX=g++' before configuring.   Not perfect, but 
better...

1) No --tag stuff at all; it doesn't really work during relink phase 
(unless you don't need it; in which case, why bother?)  "Fixing" this 
will require mods to libtool -- so --tag support in ncurses configury 
can wait until then, IMO.

2) No attempt to do fancy libtool script parsing (as suggested by 
Nicholas).  Even if you do that, you'll still need (most of) the 
additional changes here.  (Me, I like incrementalism.  This works, gets 
us closer to fully-automated-intelligent-libtool-based-configury, and 
Nicholas' suggestions can be followed up on later.)
