In the X11R7-RC1 packaged libraries, I get the following error messages: ./libtool: line 4181: test: : integer expression expected Lines 4216, 5439, and 5461 also occur. I can work around the problem by setting the environment variable max_cmd_len to -1 when building. The problem also occurs with lib{Xau,fontenc,Xfont,Xdmcp,xkbfile}, but is most severe with libX11, since then it fills up my disk adding object files to the library one by one and keeping each intermediate copy. See also bug #94 (yes that long ago).
mmm. i must not have found a version of libtoolize where this _isn't_ a problem, and i've tried about a half dozen versions now. is there a known good one?
martin schlemmer (az@ from gentoo) helpfully diagnosed this, i was picking up a libtool.m4 from a 1.4 version of libtool during the aclocal phase. sorted on the build box, should be fixed in future release balls.
