Needless to say, Kaffe's well-being should not depend on whatever
interface changes Thomas Tanner decides on. I would like you to be
more careful and not blindly copy changes from one project over to
the other project. Once things are settled, I expect that we only
have to import libtool code following libtool's release cycle; minus
bug fixes, of course.
