Thanks Peter,

Yes, I tried that and autogen.sh still didn't work, so I backed up 
apple's libtool, installed gnu libtool, ran autogen.sh which worked.  
Then before make I copied the backed up libtool back to 
/usr/bin/libtool.  Then everything worked fine.  Se la vi :)

But absolutely right, let Apple's stuff be Apple;s.

Cheers,
Patrick
