 Very strange. This sounds like a bug with "make install", which is 
odd, as I just use the standard Automake install target, and the 
libraries are all defined as lib_LTLIBRARIES. It works on my system... :-(

  Can you try two things for me please ? One, when you type "make 
install", do the libraries actually get copied to /usr/local/lib/gnash/ 
? The warning from libtool is because they aren't being installed in 
just /usr/local/lib. Two, maybe your autotools are weird, so can you try 
this same step with the versions in CVS ?

  Being a new project, there will surely be lumps and bumps, thanks 
everyone for helping find them. If using the stock configure/Makefiles 
doesn't work, then yeah, file a bug report if you want. I'll have to 
find a Debian Sid system I can test on, all my Debian systems are 
embedded unfortunately, as I mostly run Fedora on my desktop.
