This is actually a problem with libtool while building 
lang/gcc41-withgcjawt. There are three possible causes for this:

a) The lang/gcc41 port (master port of lang/gcc41-withgcjawt) comes with 
an outdated libtool version and needs "USE_AUTOTOOLS=libtool:15" in 
order to use the system-provided libtool 1.5. This is highly unlikely as 
others would certainly have noticed that lang/gcc41 does not compile before.

b) AWT, as bundled with gcc 4.1, uses its own private copy of libtool 
which happens to be outdated. I don't know whether lang/gcc41 compiles 
AWT as well. If it doesn't, then it's possible that this somehow got 
missed so far - but it is also very unlikely (Maho would have noticed 
this while testing his own port).

c) By far the most likely explanation: You have not correctly updated 
the ports installed on your system when libtool handling was redone in 
February. Short of "portupgrade -af", this is hard to fix. There is a 
port that was compiled with an old version of libtool somewhere on your 
machine and it needs to be reinstalled; finding this port won't be easy. 
You can try "portupgrade -a" of course to see whether there aren't any 
obviously stale ports.
