I've just crossed my fingers and set up the cygwin and cygwin-apps
mailing lists to use some revamped spam blocking software that I've
written for sources.redhat.com.
I won't go into details of what is new because I'm still working on
things. Basically, for now, I have revamped stuff to make it

I see. In any case, your patch was just the ticket (with some minor
modifications) :). I can now build my libraries as intended without all
the symbols in the global scope being exported. :)

I understand that, but you mentioned that what is being accomplished by
patching binutils is also possible by other means that do not involve
rebuilding ld; libtool should be able to detect this and use the
alternate method... I don't mind supplying a list of symbols to export.

Isn't it better to have this functionality within libtool... doesn't it
exist for this purpose? Personally, I would love a tool that allows me
to build shared libs on windows/cygwin, linux, and solaris with ease.

I would like to test these new versions of the autotools if I may. I am
a very autotools dependent user and use it frequently enough to warrant
dissecting it and learning much more about their internals :)
