libtool: suggest LT_INIT if LTLIBRARIES primary is used
When the LTLIBRARIES primary was used, but $(LIBTOOL) wasn't
defined, automake suggested to add a call to AC_PROG_LIBTOOL

version 1.9b (2004-08-29), in favor of the newer LT_INIT. So

Fix spurious silent*.test failures for $CC != gcc
In some tests on automake-produced silent rules, we forced the
use of gcc depmode to improve testsuite coverage; but this has
unsurprisingly led to spurious failures when some non-GNU C
compilers were used. So we are now careful to require GCC in
tests that force gcc depmode.
