Hmm, the configure macros that come with current libtool do assume freebsd-elf by default, if `test -x /usr/bin/objformat' fails. If you can fix that, a rerun of configure should fix the libtool script. Or you could manually set version_type=freebsd-elf build_libtool_need_lc=no in the libtool script as a workaround, once near the beginning of the script and once for each non-C tag near the end of the file. Hope that helps. Cheers, Ralf
