...and libtool 1.4[.x] fails on a number of platforms, as some tests
done in "ltmain.in" (and scripts generated from it) don't quote certain
variables when testing them, causing libtool to blow up on, say,
Solaris.
Hopefully we'll see libtool 1.5 at some point in the not too distant
future.

The page at
http://malte.homeip.net/kethereal.php
says it also requires Qt 3.0 beta, so presumably this means it'll
require KDE 3.0. The schedule at
http://developer.kde.org/development-versions/kde-3.0-release-plan.html
projects that 3.0-final is expected to be available in late February (or
maybe it'll be RC2, presumably if RC1 has problems that require another
release candidate).
With any luck, libtool 1.5 will be available then as well.
The KDE support could be checked in before then, but most people
probably wouldn't be able to use it until 3.0 ships.
