Hi Alex!

Yep, I'm aware of that, but that's not what I was referring to.  I was referring to the
autotools libtool.  Unfortunately, like I said, that was about 5 years ago and I cannot
remember the specifics.  So, rather than make more unsubstantiated accusations, I'll just
leave it at that.  I will mention, though, that that episode in particular cemented my general
dislike of the autotools libtool that still stands to this day.
