IMO the macros belong in autoconf, as autoconf is where folks are *using*
the libraries and need the -R flag.
I would not want to have to remember to update/install libtool someplace
in order to get these macros. I don't want to tell folks who want to use
the maintainer version of the NTP tree that they now also have to install
libtool. NTP does not use libtool and I have no plans for it to do so.
But wherever they end up, I'd prefer that they be integrated ASAP, as I want
to use this for the next release of NTP.
