I've used a macro, originally from TeX-Live, that I extended for Fortran and 
which simply changes the compiler etc. to use libtool.

I found that for one compiler I needed to rewrite FCFLAGS at the same time 
because one of its options collides with those of libtool. But this shouldn't be 
an issue for C/C++.

If you simply add _KPSE_USE_LIBTOOL after all the necessary AC_PROG_* macros, 
you should be fine.

Some tests might need to be adapted if you e.g. try to deduce something from 
inspecting programs (which are wrapper scripts when using libtool).
