Thanks for noticing this. In fact, for CVS Libtool, we just call
AS_SHELL_SANITIZE to get Autoconf's initialization blurb (and its
fixes). There is an open (unrelated) issue about that code being
discussed over at autoconf-patches at the moment; I'll backport it
to branch-1-5 as soon as that has settled.
Thanks again!
Cheers,
