Updated: libtool-devel-1.5.6-3

The libtool-devel package contains the 1.5.6 version of libtool, a 
cross-platform tool for building libraries (shared and otherwise).  It 
enables relatively trouble-free builds of DLLs on cygwin and mingw.

Changes from 1.5-3:

o routine update to latest release version
o Includes Gerrit's "expat" fix -- but only the first part of the patch:
   http://www.cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2003-09/msg01559.html
   http://www.cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2003-04/msg01283.html
   http://www.cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2003-04/msg01247.html
o Official libtool NEWS from 1.5.2, 1.5.4, 1.5.6:
   * Installs libltdl files properly in $prefix/share/libtool/libltdl.
   * libltdl correctly guesses the extension for loadable modules again.
   * lt_dlrealloc is an official part of the libltdl API.
   * --tag, --silent and --debug options are preserved and reused when
     libtool calls itself for relinking etc.
   * `-pthread' and similar options are honoured when linking shared
     libraries.
   * -no-suppress in compile mode shows compiler output for both PIC and
     non-PIC object compilation.
   * New link mode option `-precious-files-regex' to prevent accidental
     removal of files you want to keep, such as test coverage data, from
     the temporary output directory.
   * Bug fixes.
o see NOTES below, for
     NEW FEATURES, KNOWN ISSUES, and SELFTEST FAILURES

Updated: automake-devel-1.8.5-1

Version 1.8.5-1 of the automake-devel package is now available. It 
contains GNU automake-1.8.5 installed into /usr/autotool/devel.

Changes from 1.7.9-1:

o routine update to latest release version

Other important info:

o requires autoconf-devel-2.59-1 or newer
o no testsuite failures (23 skips) out of 531 total
o because this is a minor-number upgrade (1.7.x to 1.8.x), developers 
should read the upstream release notes carefully 
(/usr/share/doc/automake-devel-1.8.5/NEWS) -- but I've seen no problems 
just "dropping in" AM-1.8.5 in place of AM-1.7.9.
