I'm a bit concerned about the way this is implemented, it seems to for
libtool 2.4 onto everyone since it changes e.g. autotools.bbclass. Is
that intended? If so we need signoffs from each and every distro
maintainer *and* from the maemo-compat folks as well.
Unless there is a way to make the new features conditional on the
libtool version.

My usecase is that I don't want to switch angstrom-2008 to a newer
libtool, but do want to switch angstrom-2010 to a newer one and build
*both* from .dev.

regards,

Koen
