There are also at least two hot points at the interface between
automake and libtool that may need work on both sides.

  - unifying locks between libtool and compile

  - the relinking dependency debacle:

For libtool to relink libraries when installing them, all
dependencies must have been installed.  However automake cannot
pre-compute this installation order when it is run, and
computing it at compile-time look overly complicated and error
prone.  Instead, would it make sense to support a two-stage
install as follows:

  1. install all programs and libraries without relinking (in random order)
  2. relink everything (in random order)

Would this work?  (I think I already asked and the answer was
no, but I cannot find that answer in the archive.)
