Not knowing anything in particular about 'cegcc', I don't have any 
philosophical or technical issues with the patch except that it should 
be submitted by its author so we know who wrote it and that they 
intended it to be contributed to GNU libtool.  It is also useful to 
have a volunteer who is willing to test libtool to make sure that it 
works (and continues to work) for this target.

I suggest that you find out who wrote this patch and convince them to 
submit it as an official libtool patch against libtool 2.X.
