That's not a workable solution.  The normal configure output and

general know what is important for the package, IMVHO.  So if the
functioning of a compiler is important, then configure should simply
fail if the compiler does not work.

I tend to agree with this, but the author of the package needs a way to know that libtool has failed to sufficiently configure and have a way to notify the user. Right now there is no documented way to know if libtool encountered problems during configuration.
