This is a known bug in 1.5.4: it has configure scripts in libltdl/
that are build by a different version of autoconf as the rest.  You
can fix this (until 1.5.5 comes out) by running autoconf 2.50 (or
later) in libltdl.

After that, you should be able to configure with your environment
variables.  Please try this and see whether it works.

I'm not happy with how fragile dynamic linking seems to be, but I must
confess that I have (temporarily ;) lost track of what version of
libtool contains what fixes that we would like to have, and what
version we are using.  Ahem.
