   I'm trying to run make release of RELENG_4 on i386, and am getting the following error:

jade has USE_LIBTOOL in it's Makefile, but it configures itself
*before* it goes and builds libtool, so when 'make jade' finally
comes back (after it installs the prerequisites expat, iconv,
gettext, and gmake) the patch-libtool target has already run (a
no-op in this case) because it's in the _CONFIGURE_SEQ (see
usr/ports/Mk/bsd.port.mk) and the ltconfig path is of course not
patched, hence /ltconfig.

You can observe this by doing a chroot into the CHROOTDIR hierarchy,
cd /usr/ports/textproc/jade, rm work/.config*; make configure which
lo' and behold will *not* fail. If you then 'pkg_delete -x libtool',
then 'make configure' will fail again.

I've fixed this locally by forcing USE_LIBTOOL to create a *PATCH*
dependancy instead of a BUILD dependancy (it is actually a CONFIGURE
dependancy, but we have no such hooks) in bsd.port.mk:
