I saw this too, but now you made me wonder. So:
check-lto is in CHECK_TARGETS because all languages are unconditionally
added to check_languages in configure.ac here:

The check-% targets in Makefile.in are only matched for languages matching
lang_checks:

and lang_checks is built up from contributions from each Make-lang.in:

Probably the simplest solution would be for lto/Make-lang.in to add a dummy
check-lto goal that does nothing, I think. The original error itself is harmless.
