Looks like the problem is an _ancient_ version of libtool, or perhaps a wrapper script that doesn't support all libtool's parameters?

Yes, OS X ships with an ancient version located in /usr/bin/libtool. There are two options for a recent libtool on OS X, one is to use /usr/bin/glibtool which is 1.5, and the other is to install libtool 1.5.2 from Fink. I have tried both by editing the libtool lines in system.mk, but at the point in the ion build where libtool actually gets called, the makefiles are trying to use /usr/bin/libtool anyway.
