I'll agree to a shift to automake on the provisor that the generation of the
binary dists (from the work that jason did) is integrated into the new make
structure for generation of a source distribution... :)

ie: we should always endeavour to make the build process easier.  Myself I still
find configure a bit of a pandoras box at times and still often resort to hand
munging of Makefiles.

At least a mechanism should be developed such that the binary dists stay current
with the source dist.
