The libtool part of this patch is fine.

The other part I don't know.  I'd like to eventually fix the FIXME
comment by having maintainer-clean look like:

    maintainer-clean:
        @echo ...
        $(MAKE) whatever

The echoes are a lame (imho) requirement on RMS's part.  For one thing
we're left with the question of whether we should repeat them in every
subdir.

Anyway I think this patch makes it harder to fix this problem.
