branch 2.0, make install DESTDIR=

is broken -- at least on cygwin, but probably everywhere.

(A) cross-platform?  There is no configure script in $SRCDIR/libltdl -- 
although there is a configure.ac.  This looks like some disagreement 
over whether libltdl is a sub-configure'd project or configured directly 
as part of the overall libtool's configure.

(B) cygwin-specific: There is no root user.  There might be a SYSTEM 
user which is somewhat similar, and Administrator which is somewhat 
similar in other ways -- but regardless there is no facility to do CHOWN 
unless you're building as Administrator (not SYSTEM).  Basically, this 
whole chown idea in libtool's installation is fscked-up w.r.t. cygwin.

(C) ${instdir}/usr/local/share/libtool/config.guess doesn't exist 
because it's actually called 
${instdir}/usr/local/share/libtool/config/config.guess

Does anybody TEST this stuff before checking it in?
