I have no fix, because they are not compatible indeed. Ubuntu should provide 
both version of libtool. If I remember, you can install it by just taking the 
*.deb package from Debian.

Maybe there is a way to compile a project made with libtool 1.5 with libtool 
2.x, but at the moment I don't know.

I think Gambas should not be the only project with that problem, and it is the 
first time I see libtool 2.

If some Ubuntu 8.10 user had compiled another project with libtool 2, please 
tell us the result!
