This works for me if I have qt3 installed as in BLFS. When I move qt3 
to /usr/local I get the same trouble as you do.  I hope you can find a 
solution to this.  I heave been struggling with to autotool builds as well.

	cp -f "/usr/share/aclocal/libtool.m4" "admin/libtool.m4.in"
	cp -f "/usr/share/libtool/config/ltmain.sh" "admin/ltmain.sh"
	make -f "Makefile.cvs"
	./configure prefix=${_prefix} \
		--sysconfdir=/etc \
		--libdir=${_libdir} \
		--mandir=${_mandir} \
		--docdir=${_docdir} \
		--with-qt-dir=${QTDIR} \
		--with-qt-includes=${QTDIR}/include \
		--with-qt-libraries=${QTDIR}/lib \
		--disable-dependency-tracking \
		--enable-closure \
		--disable-rpath
	make
