 And I thought that something didn't work/wasn't (re)done when you did it
because I was so sure that doing it in the right sequence should work.
And, of course, I was wrong :-(

 This doesn't do anything if it had been run before:

% libtoolize --verbose
libtoolize: putting auxiliary files in `.'.
libtoolize: `./ltmain.sh' is already up to date.
libtoolize: Not copying `aclocal/argz.m4', libltdl not used.
libtoolize: Not copying `aclocal/ltdl.m4', libltdl not used.
libtoolize: Consider adding `AC_CONFIG_MACRO_DIR([m4])' to configure.ac and
libtoolize: rerunning libtoolize, to keep the correct libtool macros in-tree.

 So you need to explicitly remove ltmain.sh before rerunning autogen.sh
which will update the local ltmain.sh which will then be used by configure
to generate the updated libtool.

 Now it _really_ should work, please let me know if I'm still missing
anything!
