Thanks for reporting this.  I've installed your patch on HEAD.  It's the only
branch to have this problem, as it was introduced by Gary's "support parallel
installations [libtool--release--2.0--patch-68]" patch (which is not entirely
uncontroversial by itself).

One reason why Gary's patch is controversial is because it seems that he popped it into libtool (and even the 2.0 branch) without following the normal peer-acceptance procedure.
