[PATCH] libtool locking

Hello!
Apr's libtool uses hard links for locking purposes. It links
itself into the directory of libtooled project. This wouldn't
work if the libtool and the project are on different volumes.

Regards,
Marcin

You should send this patch to the GNU libtool maintainers as we only use 
libtool; we don't modify it in any way.  Thanks!  -- justin
