libtool failure "-Lyes"

[chchang6]

After running autogen.sh, I configure with ../configure --prefix=/scratch/cchang/opendwarfs --with-opencl
make fails with

  CXXLD    gemnoui
./libtool: line 6000: cd: yes: No such file or directory
libtool: link: cannot determine absolute directory name of `yes'
make[1]: *** [gemnoui] Error 1

Without the --with-opencl, the build succeeds. Configure still finds cl.h regardless, and a number of "*.cl" binaries are being created.

I am trying to build against CUDA 10.2.89, built from source with Spack.
