Subject: libtool changing basename(argv[0])

Hey all,

In one of my projects I rely on basename(argv[0]) to know what to do
in the application (because it can be called from compat symlinks).
With libtool 2.4.2 I'm having an issue that basename(argv[0]) returns
lt-progname instead of just progname. Another developer has libtool
2.4 and does not have this problem.

Is this a regression from 2.4? Googling shows me some similar problem
but with older versions (~ 2009)


Regards,
Lucas De Marchi
