Summary: Mac build fails if not building universal due to libtool

Initial Comment:
If you try to build the svn trunk without universalsdk the make will fail: the Makefile tries to use libtool to create the shared library, but on (unmodified) OSX it should use glibtool.

I have no idea who to assign this to, I hope you have a bettter idea.

Do you by any chance have GNU libtool on your PATH before Apple's version
(that is, is 'which libtool' something else than /usr/bin/libtool)?

I've recently commited a patch that replaces references to 'libtool' in
the Makefile to '/usr/bin/libtool' because of someone haveing this issue.

Tried it again ("../configure --enable-framework" on an Intel mac) and the
problem does not occur. Assume the last time it was a pilot error, sorry!

Which configure arguments are you using?  Are you building a framework or
a plain unix install?

IMHO the call to libtool in Makefile.pre.in is correct, but that's only
used when building a framework. The call to libtool is supposed to be a
call to Apple's libtool, not the GNU tool with the same name.
