* Provide a wrapper around `aclocal' (in Automake) that automatically

adds all directories specified in `ACLOCAL_PATH' to the `aclocal'
  command line as `-I' flags.  Also, it provides a setup hook that
  adds the `.../share/aclocal' directory of every build input to
  `ACLOCAL_PATH'.

* Upgraded Libtool.

* Graphviz requires the X Athena widgets, which in turn requires the X
  miscellaneous utilities library; added those.  However it doesn't
  work yet since libXt is broken.
