Whatever optimization you can provide, we would like to see how it
compares with current CVS HEAD Libtool.  We are happy to accept patches
that improve things for ksh93 if they are maintainable, don't harm other
systems (more general patches are preferable), and don't regress with
HEAD's testsuite; please note that nontrivial patches need FSF copyright
assignment.  Send patches to the libtool-patches list.

Cheers,
Ralf
