* 'libtool --mode=install' is the documented way[1] to install libtool
  binaries (in case of libraries, a 'libtool --mode=finish' might be
  required too)

* libtool creates sometimes a wrapper script for executables (e.g. when
  they are linked against local libraries) and places the real executable
  in .libs/.  Manually installing one of them is error prone and it might
  break with other linker flags or libtool versions.
