fedora-devel-list may be better, CC'ing it.

The F-11 tree has libtool-2.2.6, instead of libtool-1.5 as in Fedora 10 and
earlier. I suspect that's what's tripping you up.

There were people who had done mass rebuilds with the new libtool - they might
be able to point out common problems are and what the fixes are.
