System: NetBSD tequila.dave.dtsp.co.nz 1.4R NetBSD 1.4R (TEQUILA) #3: Wed Feb 16 20:01:31 NZDT 2000 dave@tequila.dave.dtsp.co.nz:/vol/tequila/userB/u2/NetBSD-current/src/sys/arch/i386/compile/TEQUILA i386


>Description:
	The libtool package does not know how to tell on NetBSD whether
	inter-library dependencies will work or not.  This can lead to
	sub-optimal behaviour in some cases.
>How-To-Repeat:
	Notice warnings about inter-library dependencies and workarounds when
	compiling some programs (in my case, 'oms').
>Fix:
	Add this patch to devel/libtool/patches (and update sums).  Basically
	the same as the FreeBSD test.
