There are no concrete plans to make another release from branch-1-5 at the
moment.

If you point me at the thread in the mail archives, and it backports easily,
I'll apply it.

Please don't ship CVS revisions except as additional versions to a stable
release version. 1.9 in particular has had a lot of code churn recently and
will need at least one more alpha before we can release 2.0.

I'll make a stable release from branch-1-5 (1.5.10 according to Release
Numbering on http://www.gnu.org/software/libtool/contribute.html) if I can
apply Ralf's patch...
