I don't know libtool that well, but I suspect that just replacing ld ..
with libtool ... won't work. 

And it doesn't solve the portability issue, for one libtool itself is not
portable to all platforms and second is that the problem of linking a
static lib into a shared lib is not solveable by libtool. Its only
solveable by changing how the library format of the problematic platforms
work.
