Libtool wrapper is shell script on Unix/Linux and executable on Microsoft Windows OS. Goal of "wrapper" is to prepare environment in the way that allows to run real executable without installation.
Project that creates just one executable is not the beast sample but think for a library project and a bundle of tests (executable). All tests must load library from build tree.

I think that in some cases this executable has to be relinked. Definitely not on Microsoft Windows OS. So on cygwin it is "final" executable.
