Unless I hear an objection in the next few hours, I'll go ahead and mark
automake-devel as 'current'. However, there are still a few issues with
this libtool release, so that'll stay 'test' until I can upload a fixed
version.

Been having a few problems with the libtool mailing list: first
mail.gnu.org was down all weekend, and now it appears to be up -- but no
messages are being archived. I've mentioned the problem to Gary Vaughan
(libtool maintainer) but no response on that issue yet. Is there a
"central" gnu mailing list / mail archive place (not webmaster@) at
gnu.org to report these sorts of bugs to? "Hey, mail.gnu.org is messed
up -- it's not archiving libtool@, libtool-patches@, ..."

I've uploaded a new version of automake-devel and libtool-devel to
sources. They are marked 'test', so when using setup.exe you'll have to
click on the version number until the correct version appears, in order
to install these.
automake-devel-1.6.2-1 changes:
update to 1.6.2 release
now only fails a single test: subobj9 (due to 'cp -p' failure when
running as non-root)
libtool-20020705-1 changes:
update to CVS snapshot of 20020705
now only fails two tests: build-relink2 and quote
fix postinstall_cmds to handle libraries in subdirs(*)
'libtool -static' now does what you would expect
Corinna -- with your approval, and if there are no problem reports, I'll
mark the automake-devel as 'current' in a few days.

(*) ------------------
Uncovered by a test failure in the automake-1.6.2 suite (nobase).
/bin/bash ./libtool --mode=install /usr/bin/install -c sub/libbase.la \
/usr/src/automake/devel/automake-1.6.2/.build/tests/testSubDir/inst/foo/libbase.la
Only one problem: postinstall_cmds do this:
dlpath=`bash 2>&1 -c '. sub/.libs/sub/libbase.lai;echo $dlname'`
dldir=/usr/src/automake/devel/automake-1.6.2/.build/tests/testSubDir/inst/foo/`dirname
$dlpath`
Notice that we try to access sub/.libs/sub/libbase.lai -- this is wrong.
libbase.lai is in .libs, not .libs/sub/. The problem is \${file} is
should be basename'd.
This is fixed in this cygwin-special version of libtool-20020705
