Yes, because it shows that the problematic arguments were passed to 
libtool's command line, and not produced internally by libtool.

Perhaps the repetitions were produced by a improperly constructed 
configure script, Makefile, or somehow induced into the execution 
environment?

It seems that CPPFLAGS was constructed improperly, adding similar 
stuff over and over rather than just once.
