Bill, I notice in the problem link line, the shared libdefobj.4.dylib is linked to ../../avcall/.libs/libavcall.a twice. Aside from the obvious problem of linking a shared library to a static archive, which is not portable, I think this is the source of your problem. Can you tell us what happens in Libtool that causes this? i.e. run the same command with "/bin/sh -x ../../libtool" and pipe the output to a file.
