Follow-up Comment #11, sr #110901 (group libtool):=0A=0AI would still highl=
y recommend adding a bypass ENV var as its fairly=0Astraightforward to just=
 use posix style compat windows paths. Giving the user=0A(or software) the =
ability to turn it off would seem beneficial.   =0A=0ALibtool is quite slow=
 on windows in many cases. A large part of this on=0Awindows due to all the=
 process spawning.   While I don't mind manually=0Amodifying the libtool sc=
ript to strip this function out of automated builds=0Athere is a bit of a d=
