Hi Alexandre!

Your automake patch of 2004-08-04 causes this to happen:

Libtool has a non compiler specific version of that macro called
_LT_COMPILER_C_O which is automatically called by LT_INIT.

Do we need to patch automake to accept LT_INIT for subdir-objects projects,
or do you think AC_PROG_CC_C_O should be merged with _LT_COMPILER_C_O?

Cheers,
        Gary.
