So the error was as the thread tells:
libtool: unrecognized option `--preserve-dup-deps'

If I want to reconfigure, I note a few warnings
cd platforms/unix/config; make configure
...snip...
autoreconf --install --force
libtoolize: putting auxiliary files in `.'.
libtoolize: copying file `./ltmain.sh'
libtoolize: Consider adding `AC_CONFIG_MACRO_DIR([m4])' to configure.ac and
libtoolize: rerunning libtoolize, to keep the correct libtool macros
in-tree.
libtoolize: Consider adding `-I m4' to ACLOCAL_AMFLAGS in Makefile.am.
libtoolize: `AC_PROG_RANLIB' is rendered obsolete by `LT_INIT'

then I've got the mmap problem:

cd ../../../build.linux64x64/squeak.cog.spur/build; ./mvm
...snip...
platforms/unix/vm/sqUnixSpurMemory.c:72:3: error: #error "Spur requires
mmap"
 # error "Spur requires mmap"
   ^
make[1]: *** [sqUnixSpurMemory.o] Erreur 1
make: *** [vm/vm.a] Erreur 2

If I apply the patch you're proposing, then mmap passes, and the build
fails a little further:
...snip...
ln -s ../vm-display-X11/.libs/vm-display-X11 libvm-display-X11.so
/bin/bash

So thanks for the progress.
However it worries me a bit that patches should go to the pharo-vm fork
only.
Why not pushing to opensmalltalk-vm directly?
