morning lemon,,

the only information i could find on whether to use libtool
from ports, or let the port use its own is in
http://www.openbsd.org/porttest.html

* build
  * Check whether the port is using libtool. If it is, try setting
    USE_LIBTOOL=Yes. This way, the ports infrastructure will use the
    libtool version in the tree, instead of libtool versions that come
    bundled with the software's source.

the reasons are, however, not clear to me.

i am working on a port of pdftex and i have noticed that when i have
USE_LIBTOOL=Yes, one of the binaries after build is actually a wrapper
shell script made by libtool.  if i let the port use its own, the
binary is there.
