  I am a student trying to compile Dynamics for Xscale ARM architecture. I am 
  doing this on Montavista Hardhat Linux 3.0 which has gcc 3.0 or above version. 
  
  I need to compile gmp for the same. I am using gmp's latest version 4.1.2. I 
  have successfully compiled gmp for the architecture, but I couldnt create the 
  shared libraries after compilation. 
  The "./configure --build=arm-linux --host=arm" command says that 
  "checking if libtool supports shared libraries ... no" and 
  " checking whether to build shared libraries...no". 
  
  I have tried installing a newer version of libtool, but still I couldnt make 
  the shared libraries. 
  
To make use of a different libtool version, you need to configure
gmp with the option --maintainer-mode.
