Many thanks for your work on Libtool!

I believe a good start would be to integrate suggestions and patches 
from the issue tracker

  https://savannah.gnu.org/patch/?group=libtool

and maybe also some patches Debian (and other distributions) have added 
over the years to the last 2.4.6 release.  For instance:

  https://sources.debian.org/patches/libtool/2.4.6-15/


Personaly, I would of course "bump" one of the patch I provided to make 
--preserve-dup-deps work again:
  https://savannah.gnu.org/patch/?9999

But I wouldn't mind if that's not your top priority (I perfectly 
understand that).

And thanks again,
