bootstrap: accommodate older libtool RHEL 5 still ships with libtool 1.5.22, where libtoolize lacks the --install option but has that behavior by default. And gnulib's DEPENDENCIES file states that we still support that old of libtool as our minimum version. * build-aux/bootstrap (use_libtool): Cater to libtool 1.5.22. Reported by Daniel P. Berrange.
