RE: [PATCH] Invoke LT_AC_PROG_SED earlier

[Boehne, Robert]

One more thing...
Concerning s/sed/$SED/ in ltmain.in, if this substitution is not made
libtool cannot install libraries with commands longer than the default
sed will truncate to.  This patch is needed to fix that by using the
checked $SED rather than plain old 'sed'.

Ok to commit?

2002-12-19  Robert Boehne  <address@hidden>

        * ltmain.in: Use the sed program found by LT_AC_PROG_SED
        so that relink commands don't get truncated.
