 Basically I agree, but due to time constrains I didn't have to check or
 apply other way to build it. Anayway, as it generates different .so
 files for each library, I didn't think that it would imply a problem
 for etch.

  Mmmm. I made that change, but I though that I had rolled it back
  later.

  The only reason is that the package was not able to build without that
  rehashed 10_relibtoolize patch. I will try again tonight to build the
  package with the older patch, perhaps it was a problem on my side
  only.

  BTW, if you want make any test, you can find my repo at
  http://svn.tribulaciones.org

  Thanks
