I have a Debian (mostly) Jessie system. neovim didn't build, so I cloned and built it separately, as suggested.
The reason it didn't build was I didn't have the libtool executable. See http://superuser.com/questions/928653/libtool-installed-but-not-found-in-usr-bin
The libtool executable is in the libtool-bin package, not the libtool package.
So I suggest the following fix to the docs to fix that:

Thanks, I added the change to the readme.
