Ahh that's why some libtool scripts are really old. I'm new to the libtool/autoconf stuff ....
Centos still has libtool 2.2.6 so I'll install the latest manually and see if that helps,

thanks !
Francis

Can't you just use autoreconf to regenerate the build scripts with the latest
libtool?   We generally don't pay much attention to the exact versions bundled
into our tarballs since it's so easy to run autoreconf to replace with whatever versions you need.
