Current behaviour
Building libsecp256k1 by following the instructions located within src/secp256k1 fails on OpenBSD 7.6 (the latest OpenBSD release).
The instructions fail during the autogen step with errors mentioning libtool.
Expected behaviour
A successful build of a libsecp256k1 is possible by strictly following the instructions found within src/secp256k1/README.md.
Steps to reproduce
$ export AUTOCONF_VERSION=2.72
$ export AUTOMAKE_VERSION=1.16
$ ./autogen.sh
Relevant log output
Failure Output
$ ./autogen.sh
Makefile.am:7: error: Libtool library used but 'LIBTOOL' is undefined
Makefile.am:7: The usual way to define 'LIBTOOL' is to add 'LT_INIT'
Makefile.am:7: to 'configure.ac' and run 'aclocal' and 'autoconf' again.
Makefile.am:7: If 'LT_INIT' is in 'configure.ac', make sure
Makefile.am:7: its definition is in aclocal's search path.
