Isn't this a property which can be set at build time? I mean: isn't =20
there a $OSNAME case where this can be set for a specific OS? So it =20
boil down to just set those two variables accordingly in the FreeBSD =20
case and to send a patch to the libtool maintainers. For Linux this =20
isn't doable, as there are many Linux distros out there, but for =20
FreeBSD we can do this. But this should be tested on pointyhat first, =20
I think.

Bye,
Alexander.
