I'm not so sure about libltdl. I haven't spent very much time looking
at it. One thing to do would be to check the upstream libtool to see
if the support is already there. If not, I suggest doing your port
there first.
Ok, this is what I found out as well.
In libgcj, the platform header defines the library prefix and suffix.
For Darwin you'd want to conditionally define this in include/posix.h.
Heh, this is the easier part I hope.

I don't know what you mean.
The toplevel libtool, ltmain.sh, ltconfig etc. In gcc. /ltcf-gcj.sh ?

Nobody is working on it. If you want to give it a try, that would be
great. I don't know of a reason not to do it.
I can try, but first I have to find an up-to-date libtool. And then I
have to find about the magic flag enable_shared which gets disabled.
Somehwere in the toplevel gcc dir.
It's not that transparent and obvious...
Thanks,
Andreas
