did you notice that the libtool and non-libtool build produce a different 
filename for the versioned library?

--without-libtool -> /usr/local/lib/libgdal.so.1.2.4

--with-libtool -> /usr/local/lib/libgdal.so.1.6.0

that has already happened in previous releases, on debian i have gdal 1.2.1 
and /usr/lib/libgdal.so.1.3.0.

the libtool numbers are derived from GDALmake.opt:
LIBGDAL_CURRENT := 6
LIBGDAL_REVISION := 0
LIBGDAL_AGE  := 5
which, as far i can judge, are set to correct values.

what to do now?
if i were you i would name both 1.6.0 (you certainly can't go back with 
soversioning after three releases!)

cheers,
alessandro

BTW: the libtool build survived a make -j 200 ;)
