These libtool changes worry me a little:

- freebsd3*)
+ freebsd[34]*)

.. because in 12 months we are going to be in the same boat with freebsd5
and again with freebsd6 etc. Keep in mind the elevated versioning
scheme.. ie: instead of 3.0, 3.0.1, 3.0.2, 3.0.3, ... 3.1 we are going
like this: 3.0, 3.1, 3.2, 3.3, ... 4.0, 4.1, 4.2, .. 5.0, 5.1 etc.

The changes should be along these lines:

freebsd1*) # don't bother with shared libs for freebsd 1.x
        noshared...
freebsd2*) # a.out tools.
        ld -Bshareable ...
freebsd*) # everything from 3.0 onwards
        gcc -shared ...

Cheers,
-Peter
