Meh ... the fact that it works fine for you doesn't mean it will work
fine elsewhere. Since we're trying to get out from under maintaining
the autoconf build system, I don't think it makes sense to open
ourselves up to having to do more work on it. A policy of benign
neglect seems appropriate to me.
