This issue affects all versions of libtool from 2.2.10 going back to the
initial versions that added support for DESTDIR installs.

This does not seem to be a libtool bug:

% grep DESTDIR libtool

Since libtool does not handle DESTDIR, then it must be the
responsibility of a higher-level, such as the makefile.  If you are
using Automake, maybe there is a deficiency in your project's
Makefile.am, or even Automake itself.  There is a known Automake bug in
that libraries need to be listed in a particular order so that old
installed libraries won't be used by mistake.

Take a look at a few of the mailing list threads I quoted, especially
the one from Charles Wilson.  Then check out the -inst-prefix-dir code
in libtool.  This is where the DESTDIR support is.
