------------------Is there any hack here to move further with my port of llvm to Interix?
I've looked at the recent libtool documentation, and they don't seem to have any information on whether they support Interfix.
One hack for LLVM is to modify the rules for dynamic linking in Makefile.rules. You could change the Makefile rules to perform dynamic linking directly instead of using libtool. You can change the rules to call gcc or ld with whatever options you need to use on Interix.
Another option is to test libtool and see if it works on Interix. This would be a more correct but more time-consuming fix.
There is a ported libtool for Interix for download and installation.
What's the procedure after installation of the ported libtool then?
Thanks in advance
