If you mean whether grep finds the string 'dragonfly' in those two
files, the answer is no.  If you mean something else then I'm not
understanding your question.

checking if libtool supports shared libraries... yes
checking whether to build shared libraries... yes
checking whether to build static libraries... yes

While trying to understand all of this I discovered that the
config.guess at ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/config/ now recognizes
DragonFly, but not the config.guess in the libgnome tarball.

I also notice that our /usr/local/share/libtool15/config.guess
does *not* understand DragonFly -- but I don't understand the
use of libtool very well yet, and I don't know if it would
help anything to change that file.  Is that file used in
the building of any port other than the libtool15 port itself?

AFAICT each port supplies its own copies of libtool, ltmain.sh
and config.guess, is this right?
