Depends on the type of Libertarian.

Hardline anarcho-capitalists (ie Murray Rothbard) and paleolibertarians (like Ron Paul) of course would rally to the Stars and Bars in a heartbeat.

On the other hand, a lot of moderate libertarians (ie those who are really closer to European liberals then strict libertarianism) as well as Objectivists would incline to the Union.

This. I wish I knew more of the latter type of Libertarians.
