I'm trying to figure out how to fix this problem.

I've removed the ltmain.sh from the repository and put
the libtoolize call in autogen.sh.

Now, ./autogen.sh is run when a release is prepared, but
the libtool script is created by runs of ./configure.

How is it possible to have libtool (created on target machines)
and ltmain.sh (created on the distributor machine) have a 
matching version ?
