Add configuration options to choose whether to use '-nostdlib' when
linking C++ shared libraries and modules.
* m4/libtool.m4: Replace '-nostdlib' with variable '$stdlibflag' and
set '$output_verbose_link_cmd' to be empty when enabling standard
library linking for C++ modules.
* m4/ltoptions.m4: Add new configuration options, --enable-cxx-stdlib
and --disable-cxx-stdlib, and add LT_INIT options, cxx-stdlib and
no-cxx-stdlib.
* doc/libtool.texi: Update for new configuration options.
* NEWS: Update.
Current, age, and revision values for a library seem to have been chosen
arbitrarily, which is limiting users to a 5 digit maximum. Now, users
can set revision to at most 19 digits, which is referencing Unix epoch
time in nanoseconds.
Reported: https://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=75880
* build-aux/ltmain.in: Update revision check to allow up to 19 digits.
* tests/versioning.at: Add more version checks to test.

Passing --no-warnings to libtool would not suppress warning messages.
* build-aux/ltmain.in: Add 'opt_warning' check before printing out
warning messages.
* tests/libtool.at: Add simple test for '--no-warnings'.
* NEWS: Update.
'--test' and '--check' options caused confusion with the previous
naming, so it has been updated to '--no-finish' for skipping
finish_cmds.
* build-aux/ltmain.in: Replace option names.
* doc/libtool.texi: Update.
* NEWS: Update.
A space after '-Fe' treats a file name as an input file instead of
as the intended output file.
* m4/libtool.m4: Remove space after '-Fe'.
* NO-THANKS: Add Kirill Makurin for bug report 74175.
* NEWS: Update.
Add option to reorder the shared library cache in OpenBSD so that user
preferred directories for shared libraries can be used when linking
before directories previously listed in the shared library cache.
This allows for users in OpenBSD to easily switch between versions of
libraries with the same name during testing.
* NEWS: Update for new (OpenBSD) option.
* build-aux/ltmain.in: Add option --reorder-cache=DIRS.
* doc/libtool.texi: Update documentation for new option.
* test/bug_71489.at: Alter test for OpenBSD to utilize new option.
On OpenBSD 7.5, the shared library cache is updated with finish_cmds,
which causes the test for 'Use local version' to fail. Simply, installed
versions of shared libraries take precedence over those locally built.
To ensure local versions of shared libraries can be tested properly and
more easily, additional options have been added to libtool to skip
executing finish_cmds, like 'ldconfig -m $libdir' in OpenBSD.
* build-aux/ltmain.in: Add libtool options, '--test' and '--check'.
* doc/libtool.texi: Document new options in libtool.
* NEWS: Update for bug fix.
* libltdl/ltdl.mk: Replace conditional with LT_DOLLAR_SIGN for
LT_ARGZ_H_PATH variable.
* m4/ltargz.m4: Add AC_SUBST for LT_ARGZ_H_PATH to set source path
to LT_ARGZ_H file.
* NEWS: Remove additional spacing.
'-single_module' detection is broken with Xcode 15, where a message to
stderr indicates the flag is deprecated, not unsupported.
* m4/libtool.m4: Check macOS versions to see if '-single_module' flag is
unnecessary.
Five tests use aclocal, but do not have a check for whether aclocal is
available to use. This causes reported tests failures in Linux From
Scratch and Darwin builds.
* tests/standalone.at: Add AT_XFAIL_IF check for aclocal for all tests.
* tests/subproject.at: Add AT_XFAIL_IF check for aclocal for last test.
Reported at <https://savannah.gnu.org/support/index.php?110674>.
* doc/libtool.texi (LT_INIT): Talk about --enable-aix-soname instead of --with-aix-soname.
* m4/ltoptions.m4 (_LT_WITH_AIX_SONAME): Use AC_ARG_ENABLE instead of
AC_ARG_WITH. In the default case, use _AC_ENABLE_IF, in order to still
recognize the old option --with-aix-soname.
* m4/libtool.m4 (_LT_SYS_DYNAMIC_LINKER): Update comment.
* configure.ac: Update comment.
* NEWS: Mention the change.
Reported at <https://savannah.gnu.org/support/index.php?110674>.
* doc/libtool.texi (LT_INIT): Talk about --enable-pic instead of
--with-pic, and about --disable-pic instead of --without-pic.
(Test descriptions): Likewise.
* m4/ltoptions.m4 (_LT_WITH_PIC): Use AC_ARG_ENABLE instead of
AC_ARG_WITH. In the default case, use _AC_ENABLE_IF, in order to still
recognize the old options --with-pic and --without-pic.
* tests/demo.at: Add a test for --enable-pic, keeping the test for
--with-pic. Test '--disable-pic' instead of '--with-pic=no'.
* tests/with-pic.at: Test --enable-pic instead of --with-pic.
* NEWS: Mention the change.
