guile package problem

Since I am now the sharutils maintainer, I wanted to try building
sharutils from CVS.  But bootstrapping a fresh checkout requires
autogen, so I gave a try at compiling autogen-5.7.2.  Compilation
failed because guile-1.6.7-1 has a broken /usr/lib/libguile.la,
generated by libtool 1.5.10 (it references cygguile.dll.a instead
of libguile.dll.a, and has a dependency on
/home/mingw/cygwin/root/usr/lib/libguile-ltdl.la, which does not
exist).  Now that libtool 1.5.20 is available, can guile be repackaged
to use the newer libtool and fix the packaging bug?
