No.  The bug is that the -R information isn't also transferred to the
program.  The (known) Libtool limitation is that it does not implement
a consistent set of semantics for indirect library dependencies.
(Note there are systems which don't have such.)

I'm not sure why -R isn't transferred, but somebody may have had some
good reason for it.  Who knows.

Cheers,
Ralf
