0.5.34:

This is the last patch release in the 0.5.x series. As of this release,
there are no known problems pertaining to slibtool's core functionality
or compatibility with the historic libtool implementation. Outstanding
features that are not covered by this release are the internal
implementation of archive merging (as opposed to using ar(1) and MRI
scripts), as well as the internal implementation, integration, and
support of -dlpreopen.

Included with this release is also m4/slibtool.m4, which by now has
been tested against, and may be successfully used with legacy autoconf
versions (such as 2.64), as well as more recent ones (2.69 or later).
A new invocation mode, --mode=slibtoolize (or the slibtoolize symlink)
is currently under development, and will be included with the next
release.

- driver: slbt_get_driver_ctx(): properly record the envp parameter.
- driver api: slbt_get_flavor_settings(): initial implementation.
- driver: added explicit --sysroot support.
- link mode: set the -soname linker flag alongside the -avoid-version argument.
- link mode: slbt_exec_link_create_executable(): enclose $DL_PATH in quotes.
- link mode: slbt_exec_link_create_executable(): replace backtick with $().
- link mode: -module without -rpath is an executable, not a dynamic library.
- link mode: legacy libtool compatibility: support linking against -module libs.
- link mode: slbt_exec_link(): properly support non-default shared-object suffix.
- link mode: slbt_exec_link_create_archive(): eliminate the libfoo.a symlink.
- link mode: static-only libfoo.la: account for non-default shared-object suffix.
- link mode: always create libfoo.so.def.{host|flavor} and related tags.
- link mode: PE targets: -release: fix names used for and in import libraries.
- link mode: slbt_exec_link_create_executable(): place .exe.wrapper under .libs/.
- install mode: driver: added (referential) --sysroot support.
- install mode: slbt_exec_install_entry: properly handle fussix flavors.
- install mode: libfoo.la and ibfoo.so.def.host: properly handle -release.
- install mode: slbt_exec_install_entry(): remove dead code.
- install mode: libfoo.la installation: early detect static-only operation mode.
- uninstall mode: driver: added (referential) --sysroot support.
- heuristics: slbt_get_lconf_flags(): added missing 'else' in if-then block.
- heuristics: slbt_get_lconf_flags(): enhanced the string-scanning logic.
- library: replace all uses of open() with openat().
- library: replace all uses of chmod() with fchmodat().
- library: replace all uses of unlink() with unlinkat().
- library: replace all uses of rmdir() with unlinkat().
- library: replace all uses of rename() with renameat().
- library: replace all uses of symlink() with symlinkat().
- library: replace all uses of [slbt_]readlink() with [slbt_]readlinkat().
- library: replace all uses of stat() and lstat() with fstatat() counterparts.
- library: replace all uses of getcwd() with slbt_realpath().
