Please post a link to a tarball that shows this problem.  Thanks.

Is this only a problem with DESTDIR?  We've had proposed patches to get
libtool with DESTDIR to work on HP-UX but they were problematic in some
respect (see the archives of the libtool-patches list); I don't recall
however if the issues were the same as what you are seeing.

Cheers,
