It turns out that aclocal won't see macros defined in top level
libtool.m4 unless they are defined with AC_DEFUN. _LT_CC_BASENAME,
_LT_COMPILER_BOILERPLATE and _LT_LINKER_BOILERPLATE are defined
with m4_defun. Since they are referenced in top level libtool.m4
and defined in installed libtool.m4, aclocal pulls in installed
libtool.m4 although only thoses in top level libtool.m4 are used
by autoconf.

I don't know much about m4, autoconf nor libtool. This patch works
for me on both gcc and binutils.

        * libtool.m4 (_LT_CC_BASENAME): Use AC_DEFUN instead of
        m4_defun.
        (_LT_COMPILER_BOILERPLATE): Likewise.
        (_LT_LINKER_BOILERPLATE): Likewise.
