Yes, I believe so. If you use libtool to make the library, then you
should use libtool --mode=link to link with it, too - or install it
before building OpenVPN.

The alternative is, when you know you're building the library only
statically, to leave libtool out. I haven't looked close enough to
determine if this is applicable.
