libtool 1.5.6 error with distcheck

[Sean Dague]

I've got an issue with make distcheck and libtool 1.5.x on my project.  With
libtool 1.4 this all works.  (Note I am using gcc 3.4, automake 1.8,
autoconf 2.59)

During the final stages of make distcheck of our project I get the
following:

my first question is where is /home/sdague/tmp/am-dc-32496 coming from?  I
see no such directory on my machine, and the libopenhpiutils should end up
wherever is needed by this point already.

Also of note, the _inst dir has no files in it, only directories.  This
seems extremely odd to me as well, as if that had been properly populated at
this point -L/home/sdague/openhpi-1.9.2-release/openhpi-1.9.2/_inst/lib
would have picked up the right library as well.

Any help would be really appreciated.  I don't want to just require people
to use an older version of libtool to make this work.

There is no silver bullet.  Plus, werewolves make better neighbors
than zombies, and they tend to keep the vampire population down.
