I think I'd still be inclined to put it in autotools.bbclass, on the
basis that very few non-autotools recipes use libtool.  Second
preference, probably a new class as you suggest, following the argument
that we'd be better off with less rather than more "stuff" in
base.bbclass.  But I don't have a very strong opinion either way.
