Summary: 1.4 - $buildir-path may not contain "~"

With the change from 1.3.5 to 1.4 
all project builds broke. It boiled
down to the project-path to have a
"~" somewhere in the middle, i.e.
some/project~0.1.3/dir which is
perfectly legal, but at some point
during mode=linking, the libtool
script will barf at "0.1.3/dir"
being nonexistent - it probably
has to do with libtool storing some
command-sequences using a IFS="~"
(delimiter instead of a IFS=";").

Note that the project-path is not
my choice but the one of the local
source-repository system, and that
it does not help to use symlinks to
circumvent the problem - libtool
seems to resolve names for relative
paths to the real-path, i.e. sth.
like -L.. will contain a "~" later.

Since earlier versions had allowed
the buildpath to contain "~", it is
probably possible to fix this issue,
but what to do before that? Is there
a way to get around the problem now?
