Thanks for finding this out!

At any rate, I think we should switch to Libtool 2.2 now, even for
1.8.6, as I don't expect it to introduce any regressions and it would be
mostly invisible to end-user since ltdl itself is compatible.

I saw Mike Gran's patch on `guile-user', and it seems to be the Right
Thing.  I'll try all that out and report back.

Thanks,
Ludo'.
