It wouldn't be at all difficult to have 'libtoolize --ltdl --disable-nls'

There are oodles of dangers here. For example, a package distribution
maintainer for a particular OS may not agree with the package
developer's choices so he will install his own libltdl with the extra
message catalogues. This could make things very confusing/difficult
for the package developer. There is already plenty of confusion
caused by package distribution maintainers who replace the existing
libtool in a package with one that they prefer.
On the flip side, the package developer may choose to distribute an
internationalized libltdl, which causes new issues for end-users and
package distribution maintainers.
