"od -t x2" isn't portable either, but libtool 1.5.x seems to have found a
way to use "tr" to do the test, so yes, upgrading to 1.5 would fix this.

I think we have chosen to remain with 1.4.3 for all 1.1.x versions of
Subversion, to avoid risking breaking some platforms whilst fixing others.

However, libtool 1.5.x will be used for the Subversion 1.2.0-beta releases,
and adopted for the stable releases unless it breaks horribly somewhere.

Max.
