So the problem here is that configure uses ./libtool but with libtool-2* that isn't created before very late in the configure run. Sometimes it's really not necessary to use the libtool script for what is done. But if it is, the LT_OUTPUT macro can be used to output the ./libtool script earlier. Because older versions of libtool might not have that macro (and in that case ./libtool is created early anyway), its existence should be checked before calling. In short the following line in configure.in or configure.ac (and an eautoreconf or matching patching of configure) would make ./libtool be created early if necessary: m4_ifdef([LT_OUTPUT], [LT_OUTPUT]) Explained: if LT_OUTPUT is defined, call LT_OUTPUT. This should be done somewhere after AM_PROG_LIBTOOL call. Right after it sounds good. Upstream should consider if ./libtool call is really necessary even harder than us.
This is fixed in CVS; Thanks for the report Ivan, and thanks for the help Mart.
