I didn't get any response about the use of libtool, so I've spent a  
bit of time and got it working. It has also removed the -R/lib  
warnings during linking.

I've just made a commit to CVS and this means that there is now a  
requirement for GNU libtool (I've been using 1.5.6) for the developer  
platform (I've also found that the generated ./configure will choke  
about cc1plus, so g++ needs to be installed - this is a bug in the  
autoconf for libtool. Maybe a later version of libtool fixes this?).

However, there shouldn't be any extra user dependencies. The C tests  
for utils works well now.

Let me know if anything else drops out of this change.
