Hmm.  I guess we need further autoconf testing to discover the location
of basename.  Thanks for point that out.  

(I somethimes employ functions in src/apps that aren't used in the main
libraries.  regex(3) is another example.  I think the applications --
certainly defncopy -- are expendable, so it's a good place to experiment
with portability.)  

Reformatting your listing:

: /bin/sh ../../libtool --mode=install /usr/nekoware/bin/install -c
libtds.la /usr/nekoware-build/lib/libtds.la
: libtool: install: warning: relinking `libtds.la'
: (cd /usr2/MIPS/freetds-0.63RC10/src/tds; \

:         [-e print only external or static symbols (ignored)]

nm(1) isn't being passed a library name.  Maybe libtool is being
surprised by the IRIS /bin/sh, which is known to be shy about exporting
environment variables.  

In any case, try eliminating  the '-export-symbols-regex
"^(tds_|tdsdump_|tds5_|tds7_).*"' option.  

Even before you do that, did you try "make clean; make" after you added
-lgen?  I wonder why libtool is relinking.  Maybe a clean build doesn't
trip the bug.
