#100 ggzcore can't require uninstalled ggzmod

When I compile ggz-client-libs on this system:

SunOS chloroprene.weh.andrew.cmu.edu 5.8
Generic_108528-15 sun4u sparc SUNW,Ultra-5_10

I get the following error during the linking of ggzcore:

libtool: link: libtool library `libggzcore.la' may not
depend on uninstalled libraries: ../ggzmod/libggzmod.la

I can work around the problem by first installing
ggzmod, then changing the build process to use the
installed ggzmod instead (patch attached).

    This bug report is bogus; I think the libtool is too old.
    Note that if it's libtool < 1.4, then it _must_ be updated, rather than
    crippling our build system.

    I plan to add version checks to autogen.sh, such things will be caught by it
    then.
    The whole point of libtool is to avoid thinking about shared libs - if anything
    doesn't work, it's a conceptual bug in libtool itself.

    See:
    --zz-Info: (libtool.info.gz)Inter-library dependencies

    While checking libtool's version may still be desirable, it
    will not fix (or even detect) the compilation problem in
    this case. autogen.sh is only run by developers; it is not
    included in "make dist".
