I have tried to reproduce this on ubuntu 8.10 (eeebuntu), but I cannot.
I get the exact same make line, but for me that works fine and libtool
does not complain.

Have you run autoconf/autoreconf/aclocal/libtoolize/automake in the
unbound directory? (you have to type them yourself to make it happen)
I have been using the configure (and libtool) script as they have been
distributed with unbound.

What is so different about your ubuntu 8.10 server?

In any case you can install the libtool package (apt-get install
libtool) if you do not have it already, and either use ./configure
LIBTOOL=libtool or edit the Makefile and change
  libtool=./libtool
into
  libtool=libtool

I hope this fixes your problem.

Best regards,
   Wouter
