Hello Maarten,

> libtool-1.5.6-3, cygwin 1.5.10(0.116/4/2)

> I noticed the following today when trying to compile an application.
> Before I upgraded libtool earlier this week (not sure from which 
> version, but a very recent one), this worked.

> When you use '-export-symbols-regex "^[^_].*"', libtool generates a file

> /bin/nm -B  .libs/libxfce4util_la-i18n.o 
> .libs/libxfce4util_la-licenses-texts.o .libs/libxfce4util_la-utf8.o

> I suspect that the "R _xfce..." lines are invalid. The 'parent_class

> Can the cygwin libtool maintainer please comment on this? Is this a bug,
> or should I adjust the regex passed to -export-symbols-regex?
