Sorry, but your patch just hides the real bug that you're using macro
files from Libtool 1.5.x.  You will see other, more obscure bugs (but
then again, with their nature of being obscure, you may not see them,
but curse a lot about how broken Libtool is).

Please drop the patch and get updated macros into your tree.

Cheers,
Ralf
