CVS libtoolize is broken

[Bob Friesenhahn]

When CVS libtoolize is used, this problem occurs:

% libtoolize --copy --force
You should update your `aclocal.m4' by running aclocal.
cp: cannot access /usr/local/share//config.guess
libtoolize: cannot copy `/usr/local/share//config.guess' to `config.guess'
cp: cannot access /usr/local/share//config.sub
libtoolize: cannot copy `/usr/local/share//config.sub' to `config.sub'
cp: cannot access /usr/local/share//ltmain.sh
libtoolize: cannot copy `/usr/local/share//ltmain.sh' to `ltmain.sh'

This is because pkgdatadir ends up being defined as 

   pkgdatadir=${datadir}/

rather than

   pkgdatadir=${datadir}/libtool

The problem is that ${PACKAGE} is not defined in configure.ac:

   pkgdatadir='${datadir}'"/${PACKAGE}"
   AC_SUBST([pkgdatadir])

This is due to the removal of the line

 AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE(libtool, 1.4c)

when going from revision 1.5 to 1.6.

This should be fixed ...
