Re: XEmacs' autoconf weirdness (was Re: Spurious "file has changed on disk" warnings on Linux)

A project worth investigating is trying to migrate to automake
directly. But I'm not sure offhand what it would buy us. Maybe we
would get libtool shared lib support for free?
What would that buy? I thought libtool was for building shared libraries.
The only thing close in the XEmacs tree is building as an external
widget. Have more than a dozen people ever even tried it?
