Thanks for posting the log file.
/nobackup/spuddupa/nova/linkfarm/ppc/usr/lib/libdbus-1.la contains:

 libdir=/usr/lib

So libtool goes and looks in libdir for libdbus-1.so.

libtool does not do well building to a sysroot like this. You could
modify all the .la files in the root so that they contain the actual
location of the libraries in libdir.
