Comment(by strk):

 I've realized there's no libtool script in the repository, but is created
 by ./configure trough the AC_PROG_LIBTOOL macro call deined by
 macros/libtool.m4. The same macro expands the @LIBTOOL@ variable to
 $(SHELL) $(top_srcdir)/libtool.

 Supposedly, the macro is checking if the shell supports the += construct,
 and correctly finding it's _not_ in the darkblueb case (we checked on
 IRC). Despite this recognition, the SHELL variable is still set to /bin/sh
 if no CONFIG_SHELL is set by the user.

 So, workaround would be appending CONFIG_SHELL=/bin/bash or
 SHELL=/bin/bash to the ./configure call.
 A better fix would be making sure the libtool script only uses POSIX
 compliant constructs...
