Sigh, too many things in parallel:

Well, here I'm a bit sloppy, I always test with a full bootstrap and 
submit the results. I did this for this patch a few weeks ago for trunk.
I'll resubmit new results as soon as the tests completed.

Yes, this is separate from the libtool import. I thought I could 
integrate this one too since I have to regen configure anyway.
Will update.

Yes.

Thanks for the feedback.

Committed, thanks.

Results are here:

Thanks, Andreas!  If the libtool update on trunk is dragging out, I 
suggest you go ahead with this there, too.

I don't see this on mainline, only 4.6 branch - am I missing something or 
is mainline now in a regressed state relative to 4.6?  A fix should always 
go on mainline before 4.6, 4.6 before 4.5, 4.5 before 4.4, and unless and 
until a full merge from libtool upstream happens that means this partial 
fix.

Agreed, Joseph.  That's what we discussed.  We just wanted to give the 
build/configure guys a day or two for the libtool update, not making that 
one more tricky in case it finally happened, while not waiting longer 
before fixing the release branch.  So, technically you are absolutely 
right, and we'll close that window soon unless the wholesale libtool
update happens earlier.
