Hi, it's been a while already, and I haven't heard back from you yet. Since I'm not very keen on sponsoring a package that doesn't sound like ready, since this is a serious bug, and since it's blocking a lot of packages on kfreebsd-*, I've prepared a minimal patch to trigger a relibtoolization at build time, using makebuilddir as pre-configure target as can be seen in cdbs's documentation. See attached source debdiff. I'm uploading it to DELAYED/2 since I'm still open to discussion, but it would really be nice to have it fixed ASAP. Mraw, KiBi.
