If this error is occurring when you are trying to build your own, "out
of tree" build based on the gr-howto-write-a-block template, then you
need to make the changes described below:

http://gnuradio.org/trac/changeset/10276

This is an update to boostrap, gr_standalone.m4, and configure.ac in
your project to deal with changes in recent libtools.

A short-term solution that will get you going is:

$ ln -sf /usr/share/libtool/config/ltmain.sh .

...at the top of your project.  This will create the missing symbolic
link.
