Can we move forward with this topic? Could somone summarize the problem
and options we have with advantages/drawbacks?

We've got quite a lot of build failures because of that. In the latest
autobuild report, we've got 7 build failures on powerpc64le (on a total
of 41 build failures), and I suspect a significant number of them are
due to this libtool issue.

Thanks,

Thomas
