Thank you for your bug report and all of the detail that you provided. I
have replicated your errors and created a test file based off of your
testcases. It has been applied to libtool's development branch [1]. If
you would verify the patch and test file are applied properly for this
issue, I will close the bug.

Also, thank you for reporting these issues again. I am sorry it was not
looked into sooner.
