There is something mixed up here.  Here you probably call an installed
`libtool' script:

whereas here you call the script built during package configuration:
its output does not match the order of 2.1a output, so I think this has
been created with an older version of ltmain.sh and libtool.m4 (but
without ./libtool --version I can't tell which, and why it would be
buggy).

Maybe you can make sure to have libtoolize from version 2.1a in the
PATH, and make sure aclocal finds the Libtool-2.1a macro files (either
by installing Automake and Libtool below the same --prefix, or by
adjusting the file $prefix/share/aclocal/dirlist to point to the
directory where the Libtool-2.1a macro files are installed).  Then,
regenerate all files (by autotoreconf -vif or similarly).

Cheers,
Ralf
