They live in libtool's CVS head.

Actually, these files are modified copies of the libtool
multi-language branch, that is now merged into libtool CVS mainline
and heavily modified since then.  It is possible that libtool still
uses tail -1, and that any fixes to CVS mailing to this effect could
be easily merged into our copy, but it has to be fixed there first.

Ok, then I play local and hope in the near future we will see something :)

Might be, but I'm seeing a lot of activity in the Darwin front in
libtool-patches, so maybe we'd better wait until it settles down.

In case it'll take a while, few weeks, would it be a try worth to patch 
the missing parts for darwin in ltcf-c, c++ and gcj?

Though, I'm not ready yet, since it is not that easy to satisfy all sub 
libraries...

That's exactly the main stumbling block at the moment.  Unfortunately,
I'm yet to review Klee Dienes' patch to adopt a newer version of
autoconf, so I can't even tell whether we're just a review away from
being able to do it or whether it will require major rework.

I'm also interested in this question since the cvs libtool contains lot
of stuff needed for darwin and dylibs.

I hand ported those changes to a 3.3 branch and have now a gcc with shared/dynamic
libraries for darwin. (not completed yet but a good start)

But I expect that it isn't that simple since the cvs libtool relies on autoconf
2.5x. And we in gcc don't do yet.

Paul Eggert has already fixed the 'head -1' and 'tail -1' and
other non-posix commands in the CVS version of libtool.

What are the prospects of importing a new libtool into gcc?

master copy of ltcf-c.sh, ltcf-gcj.sh, ltmain.sh?

[Michael Elizabeth Chastain]

Hi guys,

I have an issue with some of the top level configuration files:

  ltcf-c.sh
  ltcf-gcj.sh
  ltmain.sh

The issue is that these files use some commands like 'tail -1' which are
not allowed by POSIX 1003.1-2001.  (This is coming from PR gdb/527 and
PR gdb/894 if you are curious).

Who owns the master copy of these files, and where do I go to file a PR
against them?  I am guessing that the answer is 'the gcc copy is the
master copy' and 'file a gcc PR with category=other', but I need to
check this.
