Hmm.  This looks like your g77 installation is a bit broken.
Does it work fine for other uses?  Can you go into the f77demo
directory and issue
  /bin/bash ./libtool --tag=F77 --mode=link g77 -v -g -O2   -o fprogram 
fprogram.o libfoo.la 

to find out where crt1.o should be, and maybe also why it isn't there?
(I'd guess something like
/usr/local/lib/gcc/...sparc.../3.4.6/../../../../lib/crt1.o )

Yeah, that's right.  The testsuite can't distinguish the case where the
required test failed or wasn't run at all.  For CVS Libtool, we're
slowly moving to an Autotest-based testsuite...
