[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]
Hi,

There's an m4 quoting bug in a sed expression in m4/libtool.m4.

    case `$LD -v | $SED -e 's/([^)]\+)\s\+//' 2>&1` in

is transformed to

    case `$LD -v | $SED -e 's/(^)\+)\s\+//' 2>&1` in

in the configure script. Patch attached.

Note: I have not tested the actual result.

Has this patch ever been reviewed?
Any intentions to merge in mainstream?
