They dont need a patch, since it compiles OOTB with a recent libtool 
under cygwin. I told them very often to update their libtool and esp. 
not to include standard m4 macros in acinclude.m4, which is strictly 
against the autotool philosophy. They shoudl go to aclocal.m4.
But since it only affects cygwin so far, Thomas is probably not 
concerned enough. All other platforms compile fine with libtool 1.4.2a yet.
