Please make sure that you are using the official FSF-released version 
of libtool rather than a modified one.  It looks to me like you are 
using one which has been modified by the libtool package maintainer 
for your operating system.  This sort of modification is common.

The easiest approach is to install official FSF autoconf, automake, 
and libtool, all under the same prefix, but using a different prefix 
than the ones provided with your operating system.  Then set your path 
to use the versions you installed.
