It's what libtool uses to represent the result of a libtool
compilation.  It contains pointers to (at most) a pair of object
files, one PIC, suitable for inclusion in shared libraries, one
non-PIC, that can be used for final links and in archives.

If libtool claims it's not a valid libtool object, perhaps the file
got corrupted somehow.  Have a look at it (it's plain text) and see
whether it got corrupted.  Consider removing it and trying to rebuild
it.  This *should* get you past this error.  If not, there's something
very wrong in there.
