config/ltmain.sh in srcdir contains hard-coded path!

It seems that everything is working against me this evening. :-(

I have learned that when CVS libtool is bootstrapped, it hard-codes a path into $(srcdir)/config/ltmain.sh. In fact, for a VPATH build, config/ltmain.sh should always be created in the build directory and should *never* appear in the "read-only" source tree.

The path which caught my attention was

: ${MKDIR_P="/home/bfriesen/src/gnu/libtool/config/install-sh -d"}

My build machine (a Windows box accessing the sources via SMB) already uses the path "/home/bfriesen" for its own purposes so the libtool sources are accessed via a somewhat different path.
