problem with libtool

[Jens Reimann]

Hello,

I've got a problem with libtool (libtool-1.4.3-5) from the redhat 9
distribution.

hope you can help me with this!

i upgraded from redhat 8 to 9 and now my project does not build anymore.
The facts are:

 - libtool-1.4.3-5
 - automake-1.6.3-5
 - autoconf-2.57-3

The check of libtool wether -c and -o can be used in parallel failed: 

configure:6639: checking if gcc supports -c -o file.o
configure:6662: g++ -c -g -O2 -Wall conftest.cc >&5
Assembler messages:
FATAL: can't create conftest.o: Permission denied
configure:6683: result: no

therefore the variable "" in libtool is set to "no":

# Does compiler simultaneously support -c and -o options?
compiler_c_o="no"

when I now build I will get the following result:

It looks to me as if the libtool does not set "-o" for g++ but then
expects the .o file to be in a place where the "-o" option would have
put it!

This was no problem with redhat 8.

When I change "compiler_c_o" manually to "yes" everything works fine.

I know that saying "oh it didn't happen with redhat 8" is not helping
you very much, but hopefully you have heard about the problem and have a
patch/fix/solution in your pocket. Or at least a hint where to start the
search.

TIA

best regards
