hmmm yes I see the problem. Right now its left upto the compile to provide
the sysroot which works well with internal toolchain but will not work with
external toolchains or the compilers which dont support --print-sysroot option

I will come up with a patch so specify the sysroot for libtool so that it
does not rely upon the compiler to compute it.

With libtool 2.4 I dont see a reason to disable sysroot. The variable is only
provided to keep libtool 2.2.6 functional as same time. So when using 2.4 please
do not disable the sysroot feature.
