Thanks.

With that, I would have had no test failures on master, but now I
have 20+.  The cause is that in the mean time I've installed a private
copy of libtool-2.4.2, while parts of the test seem to expect the
version installed as /usr/bin/libtool: 2.4:

    libtool: Version mismatch error.  This is libtool 2.4.2, but the
    libtool: definition of this LT_INIT comes from libtool 2.4.
    libtool: You should recreate aclocal.m4 with macros from libtool 2.4.2
    libtool: and run autoconf again.
    make: *** [libd.lo] Error 63

Should I expect those tests to pass in this case?
