This is GNU Libtool, a generic library support script. Libtool hides
the complexity of using shared libraries behind a consistent, portable
interface.
To use libtool, add the new generic library building commands to your
Makefile, Makefile.in, or Makefile.am.
This port is specifically designed for developers that want to create
cross-platform software distributions on FreeBSD. This version of libtool
should _NEVER_ be used with the FreeBSD ports system as a replacement for the
versioned copies of libtool.

Assume maintainership.
It's important to note here that these particular versions of autotools
will be left without FreeBSD-specific hacks, so that developers and IDEs
alike will be able to run in a pristine environment, ensuring
cross-platform capability. The prefix of ${LOCALBASE}/gnu-autotools
will remain untouched, it's merely a case of ensuring that they are
kept up to date.

Add gnu-libtool, (repo-copied from devel/libtool15) an unhacked version of
libtool-1.5.10 aimed at developers that need to create cross-platform software
distributions. This port installs into ${LOCALBASE}/gnu-autotools, so
developers that need to make use of this version of libtool can adjust their
paths accordingly.
