For now OpenBSD is still using libtool 1.5. 

The OpenBSD port people have come up with a replacement for libtool,
but for now they don't have the 'libtoolize' and macros support ready,
so the ability of running autoreconf with GNU libtool 1.5 is still
needed, at least for a few more months (lets say until Xorg 7.7)

PS: for xf86-video-glide it doesn't matter, since this driver is Linux
specific.

LT_INIT requires libtool v2 whereby xorg "lowest common denominator" is
v1.5. I suspect that in real life almost everyone uses v2. If I
understand correctly, when configured with v2, libtool copies a handful
of v2 macros in the m4 directory (only if available). This allows a
system with v1.5 to use the v2 macros.

I am considering upgrading all of xorg to libtool v2 (only formalizing
the current situation). I am interested in the feedback you may get from
builders on that matter.

Consider adding:

AC_CONFIG_MACRO_DIR([m4])

But do not add in the makefile:

ACLOCAL_AMFLAGS = -I m4

unless you have a macro in m4 subdir that is stored in git.
