It is not yet documented, because the support in gnulib is pretty recent and the support in libtool is work-in-progress. Please let us know how it works for you. Ultimately, these things should be documented in the INSTALL file, which comes from Autoconf's documentation. > Btw, should that be --build=i686-w64-mingw32 instead since I'm not cross- > compiling? It is important to pass the right --host option. Passing a --build option is often not needed. Whether you specify i586-pc-mingw32 or i686-w64-mingw32 does not matter, since you don't want to use GNU cross-compiling tools with these prefixes. > That reflects what we already do for zlib -- although I guess zlib's license is > BSD-style.

So maybe it would be easier just to include lib/gnulib/src. Gnulib sources change frequently, more frequently than zlib probably.
