Hm, I can only speculate at this point but it seems as if autoreconf
does not know where to find libtool on your system. Maybe you have to
run libtoolize in the path where you are?

See https://stackoverflow.com/a/18980043

Also, maybe this could be of interest: 
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-autoconf/2010-03/msg00014.html

Hope that helps somehow.

Best
