Yeh, me too. I have a horrible hack in the distro gcc that ascends

I'm not sure how you did it, so I just made the attached patch to do
just that. It's a bit of a hack but I don't think it's so horrible.
Chuck, what do you think?
Only libtool knows about the DLL. Only the Makefile knows about the setting
of $bindir from configure. Currently however the Makefile only passes the
path to the output in $libdir. Therefore ISTM that the only correct solution
is to add a --bindir= option to libtool and modify automake or libtoolise to
ensure it gets passed by the makefiles when they invoke libtool.
It might be more correct, but implementing this would be *VERY* messy.
Trust me. The first solution would be much, much easier.

If a shared library is installed into a subdirectory of $prefix/lib,
install the DLL into $prefix/bin so that it will be in $PATH.
