Minimal example:
configure.ac
- --------------------
AC_INIT([libtool_test_01],[0.1.0],[[email protected]])
AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE([foreign])
LT_INIT([win32-dll])
AC_CONFIG_MACRO_DIR([m4])
AC_PROG_CC
AC_CONFIG_FILES([Makefile])
LDFLAGS="$LDFLAGS -no-undefined"
AC_OUTPUT
- --------------------

Makefile.am
- --------------------
ACLOCAL_AMFLAGS = -I m4

lib_LTLIBRARIES = libtool_test_01.la

libtool_test_01_la_SOURCES = libtool_test_01.c
- --------------------

libtool_test_01.c
- --------------------
__declspec(dllexport) int simple_func(int a)
{ return a + 2; }
- --------------------

Run:
$ mkdir m4
$ autoreconf -i
$ ./configure --disable-static
$ make

Build lib fine. But:
$ make clean
$ make LIBS=-lnonexistlib
{skip}
*** Since this library must not contain undefined symbols,
*** because either the platform does not support them or
*** it was explicitly requested with -no-undefined,
*** libtool will only create a static version of it.
