This code doesn't exist in gnulib's 'bootstrap'.

Note that there are several variants/forks of 'bootstrap':
  - The one created by Paul Eggert and maintained in gnulib.
  - The one by Gary Vaughan https://github.com/gvvaughan/bootstrap
  - A fork of that, by Gary Vaughan, Pavel Raiskup, Reuben Thomas
    https://github.com/gnulib-modules/bootstrap
    This is the one used by GNU libtool and GNU m4.

libtool's ltmain.sh includes this function. ltmain.sh is generated
from ltmain.in, funclib.sh, and options-parser; the latter two come
from https://github.com/gnulib-modules/bootstrap .
