which in turn results in there being no shlibtool script which, for
libtool other than 1.4.x, breaks the build of Apache DSOs.

This patch may help.  ltconfig probably isn't being copied by
buildconf.  Feel free to commit if it works.  -- justin

ltmain.sh also needs to be copied if we are going to use this approach. With that change, I do get a shlibtool script and I'm able to build DSOs. But what's the advantage of copying all these files rather than just leaving AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR pointing to APR's build dir?
