Actual Results:  
It failed to compile with the error log as mentioned before

courier-authlib wasnt running eautoreconf in all directories, just the top one ... this would break really with any libtool version change, not just libtool-2.2

ive fixed this, but there seems to be a parallel build issue in there between the toplevel libraries and the sub ones (like libauthuserdb.la and userdb/libuserdb.la).

i'd also point out that the patch that deletes AC_PROG_SYSCONFTOOL seems to be incomplete ... it leaves behind some references to @SYSCONFTOOL@ in the toplevel Makefile.am that should be culled.
