Why don't you have /usr/share/libtool/config.guess on your system?
It should be there.
We had one report of this before, for a different port I think
(there are many that employ the technique of copying that file)
but I don't think we ever found out why the user was missing that
file.
$ libtool -V
Apple Computer, Inc. version cctools-622.8
$ port search libtool
libtool devel/libtool 1.5.24 GNU
Libtool - The GNU Portable Library Tool

The only libtool here http://www.opensource.apple.com/darwinsource/
Current/ is the GNU one.
Should I install the GNU version?
Nothing in MacPorts will install anything into /usr/share, so
installing a port through MacPorts won't fix this problem. /usr/share/
libtool/config.guess is a file that, as far as I have been able to
determine, is provided by Apple and should be on every Mac (or at
least every Mac with Xcode, I'm not sure) and I don't know why it's
not there on your system.
Don't forget to Reply To All so that your message goes to the list
