so,
http://apps.sourceforge.net/mediawiki/gar/index.php?title=Fast_Install
i have some comments:
"Do not use this option for programs that depend on IEEE standard exception
handling; you can get different numerical results, premature program
termination, or unexpected SIGFPE signals."
So basically, "never use -fast, with C++ programs" :-/
exception handling is really important with many C++ programs.
Demons, certainly.
Also, while at the top, it mentions
Macro: AC_DISABLE_FAST_INSTALL
It does not mention how a maintainer should SET this macro, to disable
libtoool fast-install
