Hello,
Some time ago I discovered two libool issues related to the library
preference, which caused lots of problems in GNU mailutils.  The issues
are described in detail in the following article:
    https://gray.gnu.org.ua/public/ltbug
(Sorry if it is too long: I tried to provide as much detail as
possible,
along with examples and proposed patches).
    I reported that to the bug-libtool list on 2019-12-14. Back then
I got a
reply which seemed to stem from misreading rather than from an attempt to
understand the problem. So I ended up distributing a patched ltmain.sh
with GNU mailutils.
Is there any chance these issues can be addressed in libtool?

Thank you for your bug report and all of the detail that you provided. I
have replicated your errors and created a test file based off of your
testcases. It has been applied to libtool's development branch [1]. If
you would verify the patch and test file are applied properly for this
issue, I will close the bug.

The writeup is genuinely excellent - still digesting it.

It looks to me like
https://gray.gnu.org.ua/public/ltbug/0001-ltmain.in-append-rpath-option-arguments-to-finalize_.patch
did get applied but merged into one patch so the commit message from the
1st one got lost. Not sure if that's worth changing.

I applied the cumulative patch that was provided, since the issues were
related. I am not opposed to reverting the commit and message that I
applied to separate each change though.

Also, thank you for reporting these issues again. I am sorry it was not
looked into sooner.
