The correct answer would be 0.9g, released sometime 1997.
I don't think this version information is relevant in any way.
Instead, let's just remove the version reference.
I'm pushing the following.

Ralf

    docs: do not refer to Libtool version with dlopen functionality.
    
    * doc/libtool.texi (Dlopened modules): Remove broken reference
    to what should have been Libtool 0.9g.

 This chapter discusses how you as a dlopen application developer might
 use libtool to generate dlopen-accessible modules.
