Proposed patch for '-version-number' option for libtool |

To permit automake and libtool to replace imake and other legacy build
environments, explicit version numbering of libraries is required. This
patch adds a '-version-number' option to libtool which computes approprate
current, age and revision values for each supported build environment so
that the resulting library version numbers match those provided. This
round-about mechachanism was selected mostly to ensure .la file
compatibility. An additional benefit is that the changes are small and
localized; future changes to the system will probably not require any
maintenence of this feature.
I also found a problem in the configuration scripts when building libtool
with autoconf 2.57 and automake 1.4-p6; a fix for that is enclosed at
the bottom of this patch.
