libtool: speed up ltwrapper_script detection in execute mode
Execute mode is slow and might even DOS the computer in extreme
cases when a parameter is a big binary file without newlines.
Work around this with different truncation if a suitable dd
utility is found.
Fixes bug#13472 and bug#16662.
Reported by Pavel Raiskup and Nick Bowler.
* m4/libtool.m4 (_LT_PATH_DD): New macro, for finding a dd utility
that works for the below purpose.
(_LT_CMD_TRUNCATE): New macro, for finding out how to truncate binary
pipes (fallback to the old sed truncation if no suitable dd is found
in _LT_PATH_DD).
(_LT_SETUP): Require _LT_CMD_TRUNCATE.
(LT_INIT): Require Autoconf 2.62, as needed by _LT_PATH_DD.
* build_aux/ltmain.in (func_lalib_p): Factor out the actual "generated
by libtool" test into...
(func_generated_by_libtool_p): ...this new function...
(func_ltwrapper_script_p): ...so that it can be reused here, when
truncating the pipe according to _LT_CMD_TRUNCATE.
* THANKS: Update.
