I'm afraid of the TODO thread, every time I glance at it, I shudder :) But 
yes, I'll try and get a summary posted here this weekend, and then (hoping 
that the todo summary thread will be short) I'll commit it to TODO.

I fixed this particular bug with:
<http://savannah.gnu.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs/libtool/libtool/Attic/ltmain.in.diff?r1=1.357&r2=1.358&search=None&hideattic=1>
It was later cleaned up a little and backported to branch-1-5 for Scott's 
1.5.2 release.

Yes, it needs a testcase. I actually have a few testcases that I need to make.
