Now, since most modern shells (except for dash, hello, Debian :-)
implement $LINENO support fairly well, I think there is little reason
to rely on this arcane way of expanding line numbers at configure script
generation time any more. I thus propose this patch to remove them.
OK?
Thanks,

Remove __oline__ from macros, for less spurious configure diffs.
* libltdl/m4/libtool.m4 (_LT_ENABLE_LOCK, _LT_COMPILER_OPTION)
(_LT_COMPILER_C_O, LT_PATH_NM): Replace __oline__ instances with
$LINENO.
* NEWS: Update.

- Link mode works around a parallel build failure on Darwin 9.6.0 due
to the `ar' `flock'ing an archive upon extraction, by protecting the
extraction of convenience archives with a lock.
+ - The Libtool macro files do not contain instances of __oline__ any more,
+ easing merges for configure scripts that are added to version control.
