This appears to be a bug in libtool.  It probably fails to take the
source extension into account when looking for conftest.* files that
result form a compile&link of conftest.$ac_source.  Please report the
bug to one of the libtool mailing lists, if you find the problem is
still present in libtool 1.4 final.
