Alessandro,

I concur ... you can make "with libtool" the default, as --without-libtool
works to make things as they are now.  If we don't change the default, it is
unlikely the mechanism will get much testing and I would like it to be the
default for the 1.2.0 release relatively soon.

Good work!

Best regards,
