Bug#545687: GNU/kOpenSolaris support

Package: libtool
Version: 2.2.6a-4
Severity: wishlist
Tags: patch

Hi,

Please could you include my patch for GNU/kOpenSolaris support? It's
already been merged upstream:

http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/libtool.git/commit/?id=356234e0e70f82...99622c8

but unfortunately they don't seem to release very often. Patching it in
the Debian package will help getting more library packages support
GNU/kOpenSolaris.

We'll try to get out a release hopefully in the next couple of weeks or
so. You can help testing if you like.

(That isn't to say I argue against this PR, merely FYI.)
