Ahh, so we can add Fink to the list of supported things for libtool? Very soothing thought. I'm still stuck with AIX though, and that is not by choice. I have no plans to work with Fink. Guess Fink isn't designed for OS's like HP-UX and AIX.
I treat those auto* programs as part of the "portable to Red Hat AND Fedora" group. If you're not using a Linux-centric model (and that includes trying to turn OS X into Linux) then they're a pain in the ass.
