yes, it could be me.  I did upgrade my redhat box from 7.0
to 7.1 (big mistake) which committed unspeakable sodomies
against my installation (boot sector?  what boot sector?).

the behavior is extending to the bizarre.  when I compiled
autoconf 2.52, automake 1.4, and libtool 1.4 locally,
libtool didn't even install ltconfig.  maybe it doesn't
exist anymore but AM_PROG_LIBTOOL still seems to want it.

anyway, I'm beyond the point of trying to explain it but
copying in the 3 files you suggested after running
autoconf seems to do the trick.

P.S. I hope it's not too bad etiquette but in the next
mail I'll attach the autoconf'ed tarball so you guys
can see if it's OK to release... 290K
