ARRRGH!

I assume this is what you referred to when you talked about some stuff
stuck in the review queue? I can dig up this thread:

http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/libtool-patches/2011-11/msg00160.html

but from here it looks like it ended with Chuck complaining with:

http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/libtool-patches/2011-11/msg00184.html
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/libtool-patches/2011-11/msg00185.html

and then you went silent. Please tell me I'm missing something?


Here's the log from one of numerous failures on MinGW:

33. demo.at:381: 33. link against a preloaded static library (demo.at:381): 
FAILED (demo.at:387)




The above looks just like a classic Windows failure. I.e. a line
ending mismatch between the expout file created by the posixy
shell (\n) and the Win32 program (\r\n) and I would guess that
this is a problem that caused failures for Chuck last year as
well.

I think you need to use LT_AT_HOST_DATA instead of AT_DATA, where
appropriate.




Also, the old quote.test was fine, but libtool.at fails like this
on both Cygwin and MinGW:

I haven't looked at the log from all failing MinGW tests, but
given that the testsuite seems in pretty good shape on Cygwin
(only #28 failing) one can hope that the difference is all about
line ending issues.
