[mapserver-dev] libtool build: call for vote

[thomas bonfort]

Hi Umberto,
Thanks for dealing with this. Just one remark: I don't think it's a
good idea to put in the readme that you can copy .libs/libxxx.so to
the destination folder: that file is private to libtool, and should
only be manipulated through libtool itself.

cheers,
thomas
