Hi Alex, I don't really know autotools and how they are supposed to be used. This process (using bootstrapped release tarball + running autoreconf) is the standard way how Yocto project builds autotool based components. Maybe because release tarballs are bootstrapped with a possibly/usually different version of libtool and other toolchain parts than are used by Yocto or because of different configuration options? Your explanation makes sense to me and I have some idea why this build problem occurs and have some arguments for my patch within Yocto.
