It's part of libtool (from memory). The home page is somewhere on
www.gnu.org.
As for how to submit a patch. I'd suggest:
o check that binutils contains the current
official libtool stuff
If it doesn't, submit a patch to gdb-patches
and binutils to get that updated. (watch
out for local changes).
o in parallel submit your patch to the
libtool group
--
o submit a patch to gdb-patches / binutils
to get your change added to the local
ltconfig.
The main thing is to try get the patch into libtool so that when someone
updates these files your changes don't disappear.
What-if there are delays in getting the change into the official
libtool? I don't know. Ian?
