I've downloaded and installed libtool-1.5.2, and tried the same as with my reports about 1.4.3
It behaves exactly the same, it finds libraries in /usr/lib, instead of where -L wants them to be found. Then I replaced newlib_search_path="<something else here> $newlib_search_path" by newlib_search_path="$newlib_search_path <something else here>" everywhere in ltmain.in, one by one, but that did not make a difference. Then I took another look at the --debug output of the libtool script, and it occurred to me that libtool is actually looking for an .la script. When it does not find the .la script, it passes the original -lxyz parameter to gcc, instead of trying to replace it by the library it thinks should be used. gcc knows how to use -L<dir>, and links against the correct library. So I removed the .la script belonging to my library in /usr/lib, libtool does not find it anymore, and now it works. But I guess that's not the preferred way to handle this...
