bug in libtool?

Please don't shoot me, I'm not a programmer.

i586, 80MB, P1-133, RedHat-6.2, all security updates installed.

I tried to compile openldap with rpm (src.rpm), but compiling stopped at
(libtool-1.3):

libtool --only-static --mode=compile gcc blahblah...

I found out that --only-static wasn't right:

$ libtool --mode=compile --help 
Usage: libtool [OPTION]... --mode=compile COMPILE-COMMAND... SOURCEFILE
Compile a source file into a libtool library object.
This mode accepts the following additional options:

  -o OUTPUT-FILE    set the output file name to OUTPUT-FILE
  -static           always build a `.o' file suitable for static linking

COMPILE-COMMAND is a command to be used in creating a `standard' object
file
from the given SOURCEFILE.
The output file name is determined by removing the directory component
from
SOURCEFILE, then substituting the C source code suffix `.c' with the
library object suffix, `.lo'.
Try `libtool --help' for more information about other modes.

So I tried -static, but compiling stopped at the same error. I tried to
invoke libtool directly:

$ libtool -static --mode=compile       
libtool: unrecognized option `-static'
Try `libtool --help' for more information.

$ libtool -o OUTPUT-FILE --mode=compile
libtool: unrecognized option `-o'
Try `libtool --help' for more information.

I tried the newest libtool-1.4, but it's the same story. Is this a bug?

Richard.
