Well, it worked here at work, too, building on Solaris 8, although I did
get some libtool warnings:

	libtool: link: warning: `AC_LIBTOOL_DLOPEN' not used.  Assuming
	    no dlopen support.

when building Ethereal and Tethereal.

However, the resulting Ethereal (and presumably Tethereal) *are* capable
of loading plugins, so that doesn't seem to cause a problem (perhaps
because we're using GLib's run-time loading wrapper rather than
libtool's; I think we had problems with libtool's wrapper, but I don't
remember what it was).
