allow "make install" as a different non-root user

[Bruno Haible]

Currently, packages that install shared libraries and programs depending on
them with libtool don't comply with the GNU standards:

     user$ make
     user$ su bin
     bin$ make install

doesn't work because during "make install", relinking needs write access to
.libs.

Here is a workaround: make .libs world-writable.

Paul Eggert noted that this presents a security leak. The real fix should
relink directly in the destination directories $(libdir) and $(bindir). But
it is a major modification of libtool...

        * ltmain.sh: chmod 777 the .libs directory, so that "make install"
        succeeds.
