Hi Jeff,

Yeah, it is mostly a repacking of the libtool-2.2.6.tar.* that were
released the day before. Putting up files with the same name but
different sums is also bad. It is noted in the release announcement:

http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/autotools-announce/2008-09/msg00001.html

I can only suggest you mv libtool-2.2.6a.tar.gz libtool-2.2.6.tar.gz and
pass that tarball to your auto-build scripts.

Peter
