Ran into the following on a RedHat 7.2 box this morning.

make[3]: Entering directory `/usr/local/packages/freetds/src/tds' /bin/sh 
../../libtool --mode=compile gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I../../include 
-I../../include    -g -O2 -DTDS70 -DMSDBLIB -c mem.c
libtool: ltconfig version `' does not match ltmain.sh version `1.3.3'
Fatal configuration error.  See the libtool docs for more information.

Looking at ltmain.sh, which is not auto-generated during configure or
build, as far as I can tell, it appears that there is a hard-wired
assumption that version 1.3.3 will be present.  That seems like a
fragile assumption, doesn't it?  The libtool on a RedHat 7.2 box is
version 4.0.

Before I go tinkering with the libtool scripts, about which I know
virtually nothing, can I get some confirmation that this is a problem
with the build scripts, and not cockpit error on my part?  Will freetds
truly not build properly unless I have *exactly* version 1.3.3 of
libtool installed?
