Please use a libtool.m4 that matches the ltmain.sh.

The easiest way to do this is to install automake, autoconf and libtool in 
the same prefix and put that prefix at the head of your path. If your path, 
for example, contains /usr/local/bin:/bin:/usr/bin and you have 
libtool-1.5.10 in /usr/local and automake, autoconf and libtool-1.4 in /usr 
you will most probably end up with an ltmain.sh from libtool-1.5.10 and 
configure containing libtool-1.4's libtool.m4. This will fail.
