Indeed. I found that autoreconf issues understandable error
if libtoolize is missing, like,

$ autoreconf2.64 --force --install
Can't exec "libtoolize": No such file or directory at /usr/share/autoconf2.64/Autom4te/FileUtils.pm line 347, <GEN3> line 4.
autoreconf2.64: failed to run libtoolize: No such file or directory
autoreconf2.64: libtoolize is needed because this package uses Libtool

So I think the check of libtoolize in autogen.sh is not essential.

Sorry for confusing you. The reported error occurs in the case
when autoreconf is available but pkg-config is unavailable.
I guess no error by with-autoconf-but-without-libtool is reported.

Thanks in advance!
