Created attachment 193626 [details] config.log
It seems upstream messed up - they use libtool-2, but forgot about a minor detail: libtool 2 by default creates libtool at the CONFIG_FILES phase. They still do a check, that uses libtool during earlier phase. While creating libtool earlier is just a matter of adding a macro and eautoreconf, the real fix (for upstream) would be reexamining the need for that check and if it's still really needed, getting that value directly.
Thank you for report Martin and Rafał for explanation. Offending code is dropped from configure.ac and patch reported upstream. Fixed in 1.3.8-r1.
