libtool cannot be cross built from source, because its gfortran
dependency is not satisfiable. What is being requested here is a host
architecture fortran compiler running on the host architecture. As it
also depends on a C compiler (again for the host architecture) we arrive
at a conflict with the build architecture C compiler implied in
build-essential.
So that's what I propose. Actually go for gfortran-for-host and use
<triplet>-gfortran even for native builds. What do you think?

Have you tested whether the cross-built libtool then works on the target
archs?
If so i'm happy to proceed.
I was not aware of gfortran-for-host. I would like to explore this more
fully for dh-fortran-mod, but I will continue that in another thread.

Alastair

Commander Vimes didn’t like the phrase “The innocent have nothing to fear,”
believing the innocent had everything to fear, mostly from the guilty but in
the longer term
even more from those who say things like “The innocent have nothing to fear.”
