No problem. The issue that showed when libtool-2.2 was being
introduced is that running bare autoreconf will not run libtoolize
since it will "install" files into the source directory. autoreconf
thinks you don't want to do that unless you specify -i|--install.
This, of course, breaks hard since the libtool m4 macros have been
replaced, but the libtool script has not.

I'm going to attempt upstreamable patches for autoreconf and
libtoolize to at least error in that situation, but I haven't had much
luck with the autotools people yet.
