i figured it was a known issue that no one cared about.  libtool is quite 
verbose in its running and will output stuff irregardless of the verbose mode 
make itself is running.  take any package that uses libtool and run:
make -s
if you see any output at all about commands being run, it is incorrect.  the 
request is to have the --silent flag passed automatically to libtool if 
the -s flag is passed to make.

any version at all should behave the same
