> Thanks for the report. Already fixed in master which I'll release as 2.4.4 in another week or so, and it's just a missed $(transform) invocation in the custom libtoolize install rule, so has no effect on downstream Libtool bundling packages.

Subject: libtool 2.4.3 breaks --program-prefix=g 
Date: Thu, 30 Oct 2014 23:09:20 -0400

   The new libtool 2.4.3 release breaks the --program-prefix=g configure option.
On x86_64-apple-darwin14, executing...

./configure --program-prefix=g --prefix=/Users/howarth/dist
make
make install

results in a file named 'libtoolize' being installed in /Users/howarth/dist/bin
rather than the expected 'glibtoolize' as occurs with the previous libtool 2.4.2
release.
    Hopefully this bug isn't being migrated down to configure files generated
with this release.
           Jack
