generated libtool on debian/unstable always broken |

Hi,
I have a debian/unstable system which consistently always generates
broken libtool, from every package I tried (a lot of them).
I tried reinstalling all packages which could be more or less related
(libtool, auto*, libc6, *utils, sed, etc. a few hundreds packages !) or
changing automake versions, it didn't do anything. I verified md5sums,
they are Ok.
Let's take the package gaim-0.59.7 for example. The build process fails
with:
make[1]: Entering directory `/home/xav/xx/gaim-0.59.7/sounds'
/bin/sh ../libtool --silent --mode=link gcc -g -O2 -I/usr/local/include
-I/opt/include -I.. -I/usr/include/gtk-1.2 -I/usr/include/glib-1.2
-I/usr/lib/glib/include -I/usr/X11R6/include -I/usr/include/gdk-pixbuf-1.0
-I/usr/include/gtk-1.2 -I/usr/include/glib-1.2 -I/usr/lib/glib/include
-I/usr/X11R6/include -o au2h au2h.o -lnsl
../libtool: line 4615: syntax error near unexpected token `fi'
../libtool: line 4615: ` fi'
(One remark fisrt, if I copy /usr/bin/libtool over the generated
libtool, then the build process proceeds fine. So /usr/bin/libtool is
safe.)
Now, let's look at the culprit around line 4615:
# Install the pseudo-library for information purposes.
name=`$echo "X$file" | $Xsed -e 's%^.*/%%'`
instname="$dir/$name"i
4612 ed library.
test -n "$library_names" && $echo "$modename: warning: \`$file' was
not linked with \`-export-dynamic'"
continue
4615 fi
dir=`$echo "X$file" | $Xsed -e 's%/[^/]*$%%'`
test "X$dir" = "X$file" && dir=.
if test -f "$dir/$objdir/$dlname"; then
dir="$dir/$objdir"
else
$echo "$modename: cannot find \`$dlname' in \`$dir' or
\`$dir/$objdir'" 1>&2
exit 1
fi
;;
*.lo)
# Just add the directory containing the .lo file.
dir=`$echo "X$file" | $Xsed -e 's%/[^/]*$%%'`
test "X$dir" = "X$file" && dir=.
;;
Notice the line 4612, it seems totally weird. The line just before
corresponds to the line 4618 of /usr/bin/libtool, and the line after
corresponds to the line 4942 of /usr/bin/libtool. Obviously there's a
part of the file missing.
The problem is I don't know anything about the libtool generation
process. I don't know how it is generated, with which config files etc.
I must have something broken somewhere on my root filesystem, this
situation is now some months old, nearly all autotools have been
upgraded and I still can't find what's the problem.
That drives me nuts.
Could someone help me to find the trouble maker ? Where should I look ?
Did someone already have that problem ?
