[LLVMdev] Recent Libtool Changes

[John Criswell]

Dear Nick and LLVM-DEV,

	This morning I commited changes to both the prerelease-10 branch and 
mainline.  These changes fix the bug found on Solaris where constructors 
of static global variables are not executed when a dynamic library is 
dlopened().

	The fix updates libtool to 1.5 and modifies it so that it always 
selects the -G option when linking on Solaris with GCC.  Makefile.common 
has been reverted back to its previous state (or something close to it), 
and we get the advantages of using libtool back.

	Please email me if you have any problems.

	Thanks.
