the candidate that looks most promising is slibtool http://midipix.org/dl/slibtool/

necessary steps for the evalution:

  • create a pkg for slibtool
  • if possible, detect from inside butch's build template if slibtool is installed, and
  • override MAKE, MAKEFLAGS, or LIBTOOL environment args to make "make" pick up slibtool instead of libtool. in the first case we would need to change packages to execute $MAKE rather than make, so the others are preferable
  • do testing of a large set of packages and identify problems (with and without crosscompilation)
  • do a benchmark: comparison of build times of several pkgs with an without libtool.
