Sometimes, a wrapper script is generated for an executable that, itself, 
does not link against an uninstalled library.  It appears that this can 
happen if you are building a project where
   (1) there is a library
   (2) there is an executable that does not, itself, link against that 
library

In this case, notinst_deplibs is empty, and when the wrapper script is 
loaded by libtool during ./libtool mode=install, there is a check for 
"is notinst_deplibs empty".  In this case, it is, so libtool reports an 
error.

I don't think it is wrong to have a wrapper script for an exe that 
*technically* doesn't need it.  But instead of checking for 
notinst_deplib nonempty as a proxy for "did wrapper script get sourced 
into my environment properly" a different var should be used.

Attached patch (by Peter Ekberg) has no regressions on cygwin.

	* config/ltmain.m4sh (func_mode_install): set new variable
	'generated_by_libtool_version' in wrapper script when 
	libtool_install_magic.  When verifying that wrapper script 
	was properly sourced, check that generated_by_libtool_version 
	is nonempty, instead of notinst_deplibs.
