for cross-compiling, is it recommended to follow the 1.5 series or
the 1.9 series? (or 2.1?)

i've got a few cross-projects for which i was hoping to rely upon
libtool, so i'm interested in filing bug reports and following up on
them.

i don't see a bugzilla on the home page... is this mailing list the
primary vehicle for tracking issues?

i don't normally run libtool explicitly... i just run autoreconf,
configure, and make...  how and where would i invoke libtool directly
to produce this output?

instead, i have pared down my example to a minimal testcase and
attached a gzipped tarball for you to examine.  it turns out cross-compiling
isn't a factor, and the bug shows itself even on a native build, so
it should be fairly easy to reproduce on your end.

please extract the attached tarball and have a look at the 'RUNME'
script in the top level dir.   that's the minimal test case i could
come up with to exhibit the faulty RPATH.


thanks!
