Once you run the shell script it will create a .libs/lt-kwrite which will be 
using your modified version. (More precisely: it uses the libraries in .libs 
instead of the installed libraries)

You can also use "../libtool gdb kwrite" which bascially creates this 
.libs/lt-kwrite file and then starts gdb.

Cheers,
Waldo
