+Subject: [PATCH] Fix: baddr-statedump: use $(LIBTOOL) --mode=execute
+MIME-Version: 1.0
+Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
+Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
+
+GNU libtool inconsistently places the compiled executable in the source
+directory or in the .libs directory where a libtool wrapper script is
+placed in the source directory.
+
+While slibtool will always place the compiled executable in the .libs
+directory and a wrapper script in the source directory.
+
+This will result with a build error when using slibtool since objcopy
+needs the executable and not the shell wrapper script, but this can be
+solved for both implementations by using $(LIBTOOL) --mode=execute on all
+commands that operate on the libtool compiled executables.
+
+Gentoo issue: https://bugs.gentoo.org/858095
+
+The GNU libtool --mode=excute is documented upstream.
+
+https://www.gnu.org/software/libtool/manual/html_node/Execute-mode.html
+https://www.gnu.org/software/libtool/manual/html_node/Debugging-executables.html
+
+And the GNU libtool behavior of when to create a wrapper script is
+documented in the 'Linking Executables' section.
+
+ "Notice that the executable, hell, was actually created in the .libs
+ subdirectory. Then, a wrapper script (or, on certain platforms, a
+ wrapper executable see Wrapper executables) was created in the current
+ directory.
+
+ Since libtool created a wrapper script, you should use libtool to
+ install it and debug it too. However, since the program does not depend
+ on any uninstalled libtool library, it is probably usable even without
+ the wrapper script."
+
+https://www.gnu.org/software/libtool/manual/html_node/Linking-executables.html
+
+And the inconsistency between GNU libtool and slibtool is documented at
+the Gentoo wiki.
+
+ "One difference between GNU libtool and slibtool is that the former will
+ conditionally place the compiled executable or a shell wrapper script in
+ the build directory, depending on whether or not the executable depends
+ on a build-local libtool library (e.g. libfoo.la). Where slibtool will
+ always place a compatible wrapper script in the build directory where
+ GNU libtool would have conditionally placed the executable. When the
+ wrapper script is created both GNU libtool and slibtool will place the
+ executable in the .libs directory within the build directory.
+ Consequently build systems, ebuilds, and other users should take care to
+ avoid scenarios like installing the wrapper script to the system instead
+ of the executable. In these cases ideally the executable would be
+ installed by the same libtool implementation that compiled it."
