I noticed that the output from 'file' has changed recently, e.g.:
/bin $ file -L /bin/ls.exe
/bin/ls.exe: MS-DOS executable PE for MS Windows (console) Intel 80386 32-bit
Maybe this will help? Or perhaps something similar elsewhere. Libtool uses
file in several ways to help it decide what it's going to build.
/bin $ diff -pu libtool.orig libtool
