Hi Gary,

I think you may be wrong. You can check the value of libtool variables
in configure for libtool > 1.4. In 1.3 and earlier there was a separate
ltconfig script which was run, so those variables were not available.
With 1.4 libtool's checks became part of the configure script itself, so
anything after AC_PROG_LIBTOOL can check the variables values.

With 2.x, of course, it is preferred to use the vars directly, creating
libtool just to check these is expensive and pointless.
