------- Comment #1 from Thomas Vander Stichele  2006-04-01 15:40 UTC -------
After digging through this, this is because of the AS_LIBTOOL_TAGS macro Andy
copied from somewhere.

The macro is supposed to register the tags you want the generated libtool to
support, so you can have configure not check for F77 or CXX support if not
needed.

However, the redefined LT macro gets expanded after creating libtool, and thus
the generated libtool script has no available_tags variable set, and the
markers like

# ### BEGIN LIBTOOL TAG CONFIG: CXX

are not in the generated libtool script.

I spent a few hours trying to understand the m4 expansion but couldn't
understand why this was handled wrong.

Since we probably prefer correctness over speed, I've disabled AS_LIBTOOL_TAGS
for now until someone decides to look into this further.
