AFAICT, 'libtool' is a generated script in the build tree,
so it shouldn't matter whether your /usr/bin/libtool (or
wherever it lives) is compatible with the GNU version.

I'm not sure. libtool seems to be used both during
occ's own compilation, as well as during compilation
*with* occ. In the latter case, occ2 appears to accept
a --libtool option with which to specify which libtool
script to use.
