Thanks, but I cannot reproduce the problem.  If configured with the
above command line, tests/init-env defines LIBTOOL as:

  LIBTOOL="/bin/ksh ${top_builddir}/libtool"

So, the local libtool script will be actually executed using /bin/ksh.
This seems to be related to the following local modification to
libtool.m4:

        2008-04-06  Bruno Haible  <address@hidden>
                * m4/libtool.m4 (LT_INIT): When setting LIBTOOL, use
                CONFIG_SHELL; don't assume that the Makefile.in will set SHELL
                to ${CONFIG_SHELL}.
