The main issue here is the libtool. libtool is a shell script
generated by configure adding some variable
to a base script. It seems it does not like some shell syntax. If you
have another shell installed
you can open it and change the first line (I would try bash if it's available).
Or if you have another libtool on your system you can try to replace
with the one you
have.
What does "./libtool --version" says?
If the above does not work I could try to send a distribution with
another libtool version.
