        ltmain.sh as it has not yet been set in libtool.m4.  Use
        $ac_cv_prog_gcc instead.

 NEWS - list of user-visible changes between releases of GNU Libtool
 
 New in 1.3d: 2000-??-??; CVS version 1.3c, Libtool team:
+* ltconfig is no more.  Generation of libtool happens directly from
+  the configure file. 
 * New -no-install flag to avoid the use of executable wrapper scripts.
 * New --with-pic, -prefer-pic and -prefer-non-pic flags to control
   the generation of PIC/non-PIC code.

 the complexity of using shared libraries behind a consistent, portable

+==========

 To use libtool, add the new generic library building commands to your
 Makefile, Makefile.in, or Makefile.am.  See the documentation for
 details.

 In the near future:
 ********************
 
+* Port the migration of all code from ltconfig into libtool.m4 to the
+multi-language-branch, so that CVS automake can remove its references
+to ltconfig.
+
 * Check whether the version of libtool.m4 is compatible with
 ltconfig/ltmain.sh.  Meanwhile, the recommended approach for
 developers using automake is to insert libtool.m4 in acinclude.m4.
