Okay, now I know why this happens. It is because CC=gcc and CXX=g++ are both
set in my environment when I build. If those environment vars are unset,
everything would be fine. Those variables are probably set on a recent Gentoo
box, it is part of the default environment.
In any case, with a newer version of libtool installed, the problem goes
away.
