The problem is finding a truly non-broken libtool for Solaris... I keep a 
perl script around to fix the ! $#%^&* 'pass_all' bug (really the lack of 
same) in any copy of libtool or ltconfig it can find in a directory tree 
because the libtool maintainers persist in leaving it broken (yes, yes, I 
have reported this several times; the local Solaris experts are of the 
opinion that the libtool maintainers are full of ****).
