Libtool does not really work without autoconf.  If you choose to use 
an installed libtool script and use a compiler, or compiler options 
which vary from those used when libtool was configured, then incorrect 
operation may result.  It is best to use libtool in conjunction with 
autoconf and do most of the special configuration work in autoconf.
