Did you think that world to follow you stupid patches ?

It is enough do throw out you commits to bring system in stable state again.

You even didn't wait  72 hours for feedback !!!!!!!!!

Each of you recent "obvious (!!!!!!!!!!)"  patches break libtool.

Exactly .

Exactly after you fluctuations .

You must investigate more why in this particular case LT_AT_HOST_DATA 
fail in you environment .

Take care that LT_AT_HOST_DATA is used more then once !

You just wrote to the world that you don't know author of LT_AT_HOST_DATA !

"Ralf did not write the code I'm changing here" - ha ha ha .

You just point  that you lack basic knowledge and experience with 
libtool test suite .

With recent commits you just ask you commit privileges to be revoked due 
lack of background knowledge


Peter, I hop that after 10 years you will reach level of Ralf .
