Thank you for the patch.  Is there anything keeping you from moving to
Libtool-2.2?  If no, could you be bothered to redo this for 2.2?  If
you don't have time, I can do it but it may be a while.  Note that I
don't have a problem with still adding patches to branch-1-5, but I'm
not sure whether there will be a 1.5.28, and independently of this
question we should ensure HEAD does not have any regressions over
branch-1-5.

Note also that 2.2 already has a couple of DESTDIR-related tests in
tests/destdir.at.  But more test exposure certainly cannot hurt.

Thanks for your efforts.

We've put some fixes in HEAD for this, notably for AIX and OpenBSD.

Cheers,
