 Any news on this?
 
 I'm seeing what looks like the same thing for all packages that try to
 build C++ shared libs using libtool, e.g. libtiff. It breaks a lot of
 packages.
 
 It looks like the correct libtool command is generated but somehow in
 the maze of that script it gets lost, and the actual linker command is
 never issued.
 
 This is on Solaris 8/9 and Sun Workshop 6.
 
 I have tried with all of /bin/sh, /bin/ksh and bash but that did not
 seem to make a difference in this case.
 
 Best regards,
