Charles posted a patch that would make
  AC_PROG_LIBTOOL

do the equivalent of
  LT_INIT
  LT_OUTPUT

We could consider doing that, to avoid these issues.  Of course
alongside an AU_DEFUN that recommends at autoupdate time that LT_OUTPUT
be removed if packages don't need ./libtool inside configure.
Yes, it would be slower.

Thoughts on this?

Cheers,
Ralf
