Comment(by ryandesign@…):

 If you want to properly test what happens when you go back to an older
 version of libtool, you need to clean the port you're testing before
 trying again, e.g. "sudo port clean gd2" before trying to build gd2 again.
 Otherwise it's just reusing the work directory (and the configure results)
 from the last attempt, when the other version of libtool was active.

 I suspect you had libtool 2.2 active when building $someport and that
 knowledge of libtool 2.2 has been encoded into that port, and now it's
 causing problems when trying to build other ports now that you have
 libtool 2.4 active. You probably just need to rebuild $someport while
 libtool 2.4 is active. But I don't know what port $someport is. You could
 attach the complete main.log file from a failed build attempt of either
 gd2 or graphviz, and I can compare it with a successful run on my system;
 maybe that will show us the problem.

 When you wrote MacPorts-1.8.2 above, I hope you meant MacPorts-1.9.2.
