Without using Autoconf, this is the way.
Usually programs that are fully autoconf-iscated will ship a subset of
libtool sources in the tarball, build a custom version at configure
time, and invoke it from the Makefile via ./libtool. This has the
advantage that only the maintainer needs to have libtool installed.
OTOH we do not use Autoconf and I think this contributes to 99% of the
bad name for Autoconf, so it's not something we want.
