Hi, I ran across a thread about adding options to libtool in automake or autoconf (since I was looking for the same answer myself). (Last post May 29, 2004) I've devised a little autoconf solution that may help:
In configure.in, somwhere after AC_PROG_LIBTOOL, add (e.g.): LIBTOOL="$LIBTOOL --silent" or whatever flags you wish, and this results in: LIBTOOL = $(SHELL) $(top_builddir)/libtool --silent in all Makefiles generated by that autoconf'd configure script. With a little clever variable manipulation, you may be able to substitute "--silent" with more user-options. Perhaps per-Makefile libtool flags?
