Ok, this is strange.

You have this in your "libtool --config":

        # Commands used to build an old-style archive.
        old_archive_cmds="lib -OUT:\$oldlib\$oldobjs\$old_deplibs"

Looking in the libtool.m4 file, the only way for "lib -OUT..."
to be chosen is

        if test yes = "$lt_use_gnu_ld_interface"

doesn't match.


Your "libtool --config" also has:

        # Whether we are building with GNU ld or not.
        with_gnu_ld="no"

which seems strange on Debian.

Looking in your config.log, I find

        configure:4994: checking for ld used by i686-w64-mingw32-gcc
        configure:5061: result: i686-w64-mingw32-g++-win32
        configure:5068: checking if the linker (i686-w64-mingw32-g++-win32) is 
GNU ld
        configure:5083: result: no

which is the cause of the above strangeness. What is the output from:

        i686-w64-mingw32-g++-win32 -v

Libtool assumes that GNU ld produces something that matches:

        *GNU* | *'with BFD'*

Cheers,
