Everything else seemed to work fine... although I did not try to build
a
dll or shared library. Unfortunately, my code does no currently lend
itself to a dll/so form without extensive modification.
One other observation: the configure script became huge, from 267k to
almost 460k! but this is not important at this time.
I will gladly help with any problems I can. Libtool is a godsend for
me
since I have to build libraries for solaris, linux and windows all the
time and therefore would love to see a portable solution to shared
libraries/dlls.
