It would be very nice to fix it - but it's not a regression because
building a shared libobjc is a new feature - the previous release could
only build a static libobjc (unless you have the problem with a static
libobjc as well, then it's a regression).
You can probably learn more about your problem by comparing libobjc with
other libs in the gcc area - they all use libtool but perhaps they are
able to config better ?
I wish I had more time to spend to help you fix it.
