Does libtool really support cross compile?

[H . J . Lu]

Does libtool really support cross compile? Libtool should never, ever set

sys_lib_search_path_spec="/lib /usr/lib /usr/local/lib"

when generating binaries for the cross target. The current libtool in gcc
3.x does it wrong. I am enclosing a patch for ltconfig here. I don't know
how to fix libtool.
