Use of libtoolize

[Lawrence, David (STEI)]

I am autoconfiscating a large project to autotools.  I have created a
bootstrap script as described in the Gnu Autoconf, AutoMake and Libtool
book.  Each time I run the file as part of my bootstrap script, the
following message is output:

"You should update your aclocal.m4 by running aclocal."

The bootstrap file runs aclocal before libtoolize.  Is there a way to
prevent this message?

My bootstrap script is below.  I have placed some of the supporting files in
a directory called config just below the directory that contains
configure.in.  I am running version 1.4 of libtool.

There is also a recommendation in the book to avoid using autoreconf because
it does not recognize libtoolize and other automake-related options.  Has
this been corrected?  I am running Automake 1.4 and Autoconf 2.13.

Thanks, in advance, for any insight you can provide.
