I can't reproduce your problem.  With cvs head of autoconf and automake
installed, I can bootstrap, configure, build and install cvs head libtool.
The resulting libtool is able to build libltdl, and passes its regression
suite.  I can then use the whole lot to bootstrap, configure and build
libsnprintfv.

Are you using gnu m4?  Must be a bug in pkgconfig...

Cheers,
        Gary.
