Yes this is what I observe too. On our debian systems in the university
as well as on my private opensuse systems if I run
   autoreconf --force --install --verbose
I see that libtoolize is invoked too.

I normally delete all the generated files (aclocal.m4, ltmain.sh, etc.)
leaving only configure.ac Makefile.am and optionally acinclude.m4 before
building with autoreconf ; ./configure ; make ;
and I've never encountered a problem.
