Or indeed refer to the actual version,
@uref{ftp://gcc.gnu.org/pub/java/automake-gcj-1.4.tar.gz} (presuming that
is the one).
As libltdl is actually a subdirectory of libjava, perhaps the docs should
reflect that (referring to @file{libjava/libltdl}).
(Are there any plans for a libtool update after the autoconf and automake
updates? libltdl is from the current release, while the toplevel libtool
files are derived from an old libtool branch.)
