Thanks -- patching the libtool used by libidn is fragile and time-
consuming.  Are there any well-established patterns to do that?

I am hoping your email report in the mailing list archive, together
with the patch you provided against libtool a long time ago, is
sufficient for anyone building on Solaris 11.4 to patch it locally.

I am leaning towards not fixing this.
