7.1.1 has been around for quite a while -- it's Libtool 1.5.8.

No problem. Just due to other scheduling, it's unlikely that 7.1.2

If you need to get a version of LAM running on your Solaris machines,
you might want to try the latest 7.1.2 beta, as it is made with
essentially a patched version of Libtool 1.5.14.
