Yup, the script needs to be fixed to sudo those two commands.

Try doing

        sudo mv /usr/local/bin/libtool /usr/local/bin/glibtool
        sudo mv /usr/local/bin/libtoolize /usr/local/bin/glibtoolize

and then try re-running the autogen script - hopefully, the failure of the two mv commands didn't cause the entire 
script to stop running at that point, so that it at least built and installed everything after that.

(If you're curious, the problem is that OS X has a "libtool" command unrelated to GNU libtool, possibly inherited from 
NeXTStEP, so, back when Apple - and NeXT? - shipped GNU libtool, they renamed it to "glibtool" to avoid the collision.  
macosx-setup.sh will do the same, to avoid collisions with the system libtool and to have autogen.sh's workaround for 
the rename continue to work.)
