So has autoconf, which is why all m4sugar scripts currently start with the
shorter:

IFS=" ""        $as_nl"

Which makes me wonder - do we even need this patch, or is it sufficient to
entirely delete libtool's IFS initialization in favor of m4sugar's, thanks
to Paolo's recent cleanups to use m4sugar as documented?
