No. Only 61 packages build-depend on libltdl-dev, so it does not make
sense to include it. I only included autopoint because it was mentioned
in autotools-dev README.Debian (and libltdl-dev is not mentioned there);
and because I thought it somehow replaces the gettext package for
autoreconf stuff.

I will recommend gettext in dh-autoreconf v2, but libltdl-dev really
looks a bit too exotic to me.
