I just ran into this same problem. I tracked the cause to some old copies of the auto* tools installed under /usr/local/bin without any version suffix. These files were unclaimed by any currently installed port. The libtool build was using these older executables instead of the newer ones with the version suffix and running into problems because the tools were too old. I deleted these old files and now the libtool build succeeds.
