I'm sorry, but you provide too little information in order to be able to
see what's going wrong.  Please show failures, exact libtool version
used (it's not the fact that OSX has a /usr/bin/libtool which is not the
GNU one -- that is usually named glibtool there; right?), and how
exactly it fails.  Best would be a reproducible example.

All I can say regarding the information given is that for other people
this combination is apparently working, since there are no bug reports
I know of.

Cheers,
Ralf
