I hope this doesn't sound patronizing, but are you sure /usr (and
/usr/lib) are writable? Can you do a "sudo touch /usr/local/testme"?
From the error, it really does look like a simple permission problem.

Nah, not patronizing at all.
Turns out it was me after all. The home directory was NFS-mounted, and
when libtool tried to do some in-place re-link as part of the
install, it died, because it couldn't write the file (because root
isn't root across NFS).
It's like these systems are set up to *deliberately* cause trouble :-)
