My libtool seems to be very different (I think it's version 2.2.6b),
but this is starting to look like a red herring.
Can you try to rebuild from a pristine source tree? Since you haven't
built in a long time, it's likely that you would have to rebuild all
or almost all of the sources anyways, with all the changes that have
been going on.
I'm tracking the development sources nowadays, and I seem to need to
regularly rebuild most of Octave. I understand that this is an
acceptable state of affairs.
