'get stuck' is pretty vague.  Please make it more specific by posting
the command you issued, and cut-and-pasting its output.  Since you seem
to have a macro that interferes with Libtool macros, please post it, too
(or a link if it's large or you've already posted it).  Showing contents
of configure.ac can help, too, but I'd be able to tell better with more
information.

Cheers,
Ralf
