 Libtool doesn't really need the file program for decent shared library

We're talking about old code here.

The fact that each package based on libtool is carrying it's own copy of
libtool around doesn't exactly help to eleminate old libtool copies
quickly either.

 It's worth to run `libtoolize -c -f' before building any libtool-based
software.
