XZ Utils 5.2.13, 5.4.7, and 5.6.2 packages were created using a Git
snapshot of GNU Libtool. The benefit is that there tend to be fixes
that aren't in a stable release yet. At the same time there is a higher
risk of new bugs. This time there unfortunately was a bug that breaks
building of shared libraries on some systems like mips64.
I'm sorry for the hassle. In any case, don't blame Libtool upstream for
this.
The same patch applies to the three XZ Utils releases:
