You mean I should edit /usr/share/libtool/libtool.m4 and change this part, that is already specific to cygwin? cygwin*) # func_win32_libid is a shell function defined in ltmain.sh lt_cv_deplibs_check_method='file_magic ^x86 archive import|^x86 DLL' lt_cv_file_magic_cmd='func_win32_libid' ;; It sounds hackish. Terribly hackish. If it's a normal thing you need to do at least for some applications under cygwin, why not have some kind of a switch for that included into official libtool?
