Hi Gideon,

Please keep the mailing list in Cc, so others can help (or see whether
their problems are the same as yours), unless you send really huge
files.  Thank you.

That's fine.  I think it also gave me the necessary clue: in toplevel
configure.ac you have:

| AC_CONFIG_FILES([Makefile
|       libltdl/Makefile
|       src/Makefile])

Please remove libltdl/Makefile.  Explanation: AC_CONFIG_SUBDIRS(libltdl)
means there is a sub-configuration in libltdl, with associated
configure.ac and created configure.  That libltdl/configure.ac already
has libltdl/Makefile as output.

Does everything work fine for you now?
Is there an error in our documentation that suggests doing this?

Regards,
Ralf
