[If possible, please preserve the -forwarded address in any replies.]

For the reasons stated below, we're going to switch to call
(g)libtoolize in Debian rather than (g)libtool.  I thought I'd mention
it in case it's relevant upstream.

Yes, it makes more sense to invoke ‘libtoolize’ here (the installed
‘libtool’ script is never really used.)

Pushed as 76a8db2.

Thanks for sharing.
