[PATCH] libtool.m4: remove (incorrect) handling of FreeBSD 1.x

[Gerald Pfeifer]

FreeBSD has been dead for way over a decade (FreeBSD 2.0 was released
in 1994) and without support for dynamic linking and shared libraries
I doubt there's a lot of software that would build at all.

In anycase, libtool's handling code to handle it is buggy and will soon 
also match FreeBSD 10.0 and later which do support dynamic linking.


I think it's best to simplify libtool.m4 per the patch below.

I do not have libtool write access, so appreciate help.  Let me know
how to handle this for GCC, where this should go to HEAD, 4.5 and 4.4
at least.


Thanks,
Gerald
