Aehm, the patch Peter mentioned on libtool.m4 (another mail from this 
thread) is the complete minimal set which covers FreeBSD >=10.

The above chunk was only a part of it.

With a libtool import we would cover this and some more issues.
I think Markus Trippelsdorf prepared a patch for trunk but I do not know 
its status. I tested both iterations successfully.

Gruss,
