+Note that if you update this patch, please update this one as well:
+
+  eclass/ELT-patches/portage/1.4.1
+
+The file name can stay 1.4.1, as it will still apply to all versions.  Only
+when a new version of libtool comes out that it do not apply to, then the
+name should be bumped, but the patch content should stay fairly the same.
