If you use MacPorts it's just "install those packages", and I imagine
the same for Homebrew.  I've not tried build-from-source on modern
platforms.

One thing I think we lack data on is whether we're going to need a
policy similar to everyone-must-use-exactly-this-autoconf-version.
If we do, that will greatly raise the importance of building from
source.
