Looks like this has been broken since Jim's gnulib commit in December:
commit 767ccd40dadbeb4b1480a235ec4bacbcd50276cd

bootstrap: remove some now-unneeded code
This script arose back when gnulib-tool was young.
Since then, it has seen improvements that render much of this
script unnecessary. In particular, it can now make symlinks
to the files it uses. Also, I no longer see as much value in
marking files as read-only via comments.
If you relied on the symlink-creation feature of the preceding
version of this script, you can get most of that functionality
by adding the --symlink option to the definition of
gnulib_tool_option_extras in your bootstrap.conf file.
Jim obviously didn't test with the ancient libtool of RHEL5. I'll see
if I can find time to fix this in gnulib, then update libvirt to the
latest gnulib.
