GNU libtool is a generic library support script. Libtool hides the
complexity of using shared libraries behind a consistent, portable
interface.

This is a routine update to one of the more recent releases from the 1.5
branch. It has been available from the mirrors since last July, and as
an official cygwin test release since January. (The actual latest
release from that branch at this time is "1.5.26" but it has not been
tested thoroughly enough on cygwin).

While the upstream libtool team has released libtool-2.2, there are
still a few issues that preclude an official cygwin package. These have
been resolved in libtool CVS, so I expect to release an official cygwin
libtool2.2 package once the upstream team releases version 2.2.2.  Be
forewarned, however, that libtool1.5 and libtool2.2 cannot coexist in
the same installation tree (that is, with the same prefix=/usr) -- so
official cygwin packages of libtool1.5 and libtool2.2 cannot both be
installed at the same time.
